Hello I’m experience reefer new to anemones. I just recently purchased a new LTA It’s been doing good for four days just got home from work he has his mouth wide open and doesn’t look to be as big as normal. Water parameters have been stable the tank is six months old. He’s bedded down in the sand real good hasn’t really moved since I put them in he kind of took right where I placed him. Tank is a 45 gallon with a single ai prime.

Salinity 35ppt
PH 8.2
Ammonia 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 5
Dkh 10
Calcium 425
Magnesium 1350

Give it time to acclimate to your tank. I agree, it looks really good.

If the mouth stretches wide, insides come out and it starts dissolving then you have a problem. The water will start to stink really bad.

sorry video doesn’t work on iOS.

It's definitely happy when it looks like that.
