Help! New Sea Anemone Doesn't Look Right. With Pictures!

[shawnriv]

Yesterday I picked up a bubble tip sea anemone (the pet store called it a maroon anemone) and I brought it home. I had my water tested at the store and everything looked good, but the clerk recommended a 20% water change. After the water change I put the anemone in and he hasn't really moved. When I first put him in the tank he was all the way closed, but he still hasn't fully opened. I know it's only been one day, but my two clowns haven't seemed to acknowledge him either. I did notice a very little bit of slime coming from him too? I have attached a couple pictures. Thank you in advanced!

The other rock work in there looks too "clean", meaning the tank may not be mature enough for an anemone. How long has the tank been in operation, what else is in it, what kind of lights do you have and exactly what are your water params? If the water tested good at the lfs, did that agree with your test results, and why did the clerk recommend a water change if the params were good? Sorry for all the questions, but these animals are very particular about conditions they will tolerate. Once we understand your system we will be able to make some suggestions. In the meantime, stay patient!
