It was perfectly fine super long and then I turned the light on and he shriveled upHas anything changed parameter wise? You should run some tests to see if anything is out of whack. How long has it been like that?
I’ve had it since Saturday and he was big and really good looking until this morning.Is this the first day you've had it? It could be adjusting to your lighting and parameters. I would still test salinity, nitrates, phosphates, temp, dKh so you have a baseline. But trying to understand how long of a time period we are looking at
Ok. Just based on the pictures, your setup appears to be pretty new. Anenomes really prefer clean water without excessive nutrients, bright lighting (if it can grow lps or acros it should be ok for an anenome) and good flow. Adding an anenome in a new tank usually doesn't go so well. You may lack the proper lighting, or you need better flow. It also could just be pooping.
I would still be running tests so you can rule out any water chemistry issues. They also need some time to adapt to your system. It'll wander around while it finds a spot that meets its needs as far as lighting and flow are concerned.
@OrionN is quite adept at anenome care, but it's hard to provide more direction without some parameters or info on equipment /age of tank etc.
Generally speaking, anenomes aren't beginner animals.
