Is there something wrong with my anemone? If so, what could I do?

She has been retracted since yesterday, my tanke is been running for almost a year

The light that I have is Noopsyche K7 Mini

My parameters are
Salinity: 1.025
Ammonia: 0
Nitrates: 5-10
Nitrites: 0
Ph: 8
Alkalinity: 9

The first two pictures were like a week ago, she looked happy and the third one is today

I can't tell much from your photo. From what i can see it looks fine. How long have you had the anemone? Anemones don't always look the same. They will retract and close up for a varity of reasons. I would just let it be for now. Better photos would help tell if there is an issue.
I am not familiar with that light. It looks very blue and not very bright. Anemones like a lot of light.

I've had it for almost two weeks, the intensity right now is blue 20%, whites 12% and purple 20%, there is one powerhead in this tank that comes with it, is a AIO IM 15 Gallon

Mysis is a great food for them. Raw shrimp and raw salmon too for when they get larger. Hope they grow out for you and split. My 1 started like in my signature pic on left and 3 yrs later I have 3 large ones.
