What's going on with my BTA?

I have 4 anemones in my tank--a BTA, long tentical, condy and worantian.....everyone is open and happy except the bta, he's closed up and acting weird, trying to hide from sight....
No3 20 mg/l
No2 0
Amm 0
P.H. 8.3
salinity 29 ppt
any ideas? maybe it's just a crazy bta??

i've read sometimes BTA's will close up when they move or when they are going to the bathroom. Mine closes up sometime but as long as it opens back up soon you don't have anything to worry about.
If it doesn't open back up again soon try spot feeding it and make sure it has enough light, and keep your eye on it. If it dies it melts and it can do very bad things for your water chemistry.
