Sebae anemone moving after planted foot?

[samiam997]

Hello all,
We have a sebae anemone that we've had for almost a year now. For the past few days, it has been deflated. Now tonight, it seems to have pulled it's foot up and is no longer planted.
Is it moving? Sick?
Our clowns seem confused and lost!!
Any help greatly appreciated.

Well. check the usual suspects. Water Quality, Sufficient Lighting, Decent Flow/Water Movement. Nems usually freak out when water quality goes south. One day all is good, the next day you got a little ball of fleshy goo.
Make sure your tests are good. They do expire.
A decent water change may help out as well. But I promise you that it will only take a day or three before it is beyond help so hurry up.

Thanks!
I didn't know that about the test kits. I'm off to check right now.
We've had it fairly easy with this guy, acclimated well, eats well, settled in well...
I don't want to lose him (her? it?)
