How do I know if it's dead or alive or reproducing?

[chamic1]

How do I know if my seabae anemone is dead or alive? I came back from school and noticed that my water was cloudier than usual. I tested the water:
NO2- .1ppm
NO3- 20ppm
NH4- 0ppm
Ca- 420ppm
NaCl- 1.025
pH-8.2
PO4- .1ppm
The anemone was fine a day and a half ago. yesterday I noticed that if turned inside out, revealing this dark green coiled stuff. I'm not very good with anemone anatomy but I think it is its actonia. It also appears to be sloughing off what looks like yellow eggs encased in a gelatinous slime. These bundles of yellow eggs are breaking off in strings and floating in the water. It is sitting with its foot on the sand (where it likes to be), upright, with the actonia raised about 3cm from the sand. The fish in the tank don't even want to eat the yellow eggs.
WHAT IS MY ANEMONE DOING?:help:

This doesn't sound good. Sounds like a meltdown.
Those coils could be part of the mesenterial filaments, and you may be describing part of the gametogenic tissue or gonad of the anemone. The acontia is at the very bottom by the pedial disc, if you can see that then it sounds very much like the sebae has had it.
Try scooping it out onto a clean plate or something and see or rather smell it, if it stinks to high heaven then don't even think about putting it back into the tank. just flush it.
If it still looks like its intact the this could simply be a reproductive event. Can't really tell without a pic or better descript of what is happening.
Either way right now with those water paramiters I'd be doing a water change and running a fresh batch of carbon.

Ill second the dying stage.... If you value how you smell don't let it touch your skin. The smell does not wash off easily....

sounds like death to me too.
i had a sebae and it died on me too doing the same thing letting its insides come out. i heard u should discard them as soon as possible after death cuz they pollute the water and can jeapordize the health of the rest of ur tank inhabitants.
