Does anyone know what’s wrong with my magnifica anemone? It’s started slipping frown the the bottom of the tank and has moved on top of some of my coral and looks like this

How long have you had it? Looks like it's expelling waste but could be a precursor to something worse, but it depends on how long you've had it.

weve had it nearly 5 months now - it hasn’t been eating properly in the past 2 weeks

Is it supposed to look that transparent and bleached?

I would definitely stop feeding it. I am not sure why people like to feed their nems so often. If they are not super healthy, 100% positive healthy, it will more then likely hurt them to feed often.

Did your star fish go into the anemone? Did something else happen to the tank recently which caused it to move? Is the mouth always open like that or closed? How old is your tank?
