I have had my rose BTA for 2 months now, i don't understand how it's reacting to my tank...if its normal of BTA's or something i'm not seeing. The majority of the day it is shriveled, it has chosen a spot in my tank and is attached to a piece of
LR that is near the bottom ( about 14'' from the top) and seems to dislike my lighting...it hides from it. I one day tried turning the rock it was attached to over so it would be in the light, and it ran and was hiding within hours. I believe i have adaquate lighting to sustain anemones. I am using a coralife overhead with 2 -75W CFL's 1- 10000k and 1- Actinic.
I believe i have ideal water parameters -
salinity 1.024,
pH 8.4,
nitrite 0,
nitrate 0 ,
ammonia 0 ,phospate 0, KH -
DKH 11,
calcium 420ppm.
other info that could be relavant: it is being hosted by 2 percula's, it is aprox 10'' diameter when inflated. It doesn't seem to be able to grab food or have it stick to it when i attempt to hand feed. When it does inflate fully it looks heathy all tips nice and full, but usually is shriveled with a gaping hole for a mouth. Any Suggestions??

What I can tell you is that when my corals or anemones are shrivelled, it's because they are expelling waste. It seems as though maybe they need to deflate in order to poop. My livestock also will not take food in this state, but within a short time they resume a normal feeding pattern.
