What is wrong with my Rose Bubble Tip Anemone?

I have 2 bubble tip anemones. One is perfect no issues at all. The other one is looking like its dieing.
My water parameters are
S.G: 1.024
ph:8.0
ammonia: 0ppm
nitrite: 0ppm
nitrate:0-5ppm
calcium 420ppm
kh:9
I have a hang on the back refugium with a protein skimmer.
Lighting is a 24" T5 HO 4lamp fixture
I was feeding it Brine shrimp and Mysis shrimp. I just switched to Silversides that I chop into small pieces.
I can take more pictures when my daytime lights come on if needed.

Both anemones do not look good. The second one looks bleached. I would have to suspect poor lighting.

I still think the second one is on the bleached side. It's possible that the rose is expelling waste.
