Bubble tip Anemone question

[Gbailey28]

I have had a bubble tip anemone in my tank for for 4 months or so. It split when I first put him in the tank and has been fine for months. Two weeks ago one of them completely closed up and has not opened since. Nothing in my tank has changed. Is it dying?

Still looks like it has color. When was the last time you tested your water?

 

[Gbailey28]

Once or twice a week. I tested it just before this post as well8.2 ph, 0ppm ammonia; 0ppm nitrite, between 5 and 10 ppm nitrate. I always battle nitrates though.

How much light?

And you said it split, is this one in a new place in your tank?

It is a 46 gal bow front. I one one hydra 26. It has moved a few times, but had been in the same spot for some time now.

I wouldn't worry about it just yet, he's just trying to get situated. Keep an eye on it. Hows the other one look?

What's your temp at? I noticed mine seemed happier at a temp of around 80, but that's just my opinion. No data to back that up.

I am running almost 80
