I got it a few days ago and he hasn't blown up like a BTA yet. I gave him some fish food a few days ago and salmon yesterday, and now today he looks like this. What's wrong with him? I can't test my water ATM, but as soon as I can I'll post them.

Please stop feeding it for now. Let it adjust to it's new environment fully first. As long as you have the correct lighting to sustain an anemone, it will be just fine as long as your numbers are all good. IT gets most of its energy through photosynthesis anyway. I do feed mine occasionally, but it is very well established in my tank.

Okay, thank you!

Can you please list parameters, lighting, age of tank, water source? Also as mentioned above feeding isn't necessary.
