This is my newish magnificent anemone. It’s been looking great for the past couple weeks, with the clownfish starting to sleep in it at night and today I noticed the gaping mouth and shriveling. Not sure if it’ll go back to normal at the end of the day or if I can do something to revitalize it. Tanks a year old, 1.025 reading, solid temp. I know these mems can be challenging and might be my fault for thinking I could manage it. Thanks! Before and after pics.

It's hard to see what's going on in the photos. Have you provided it with a flat, horizontal surface to attach to?

Yes I have a few flat rocks but it’s moved around a bit and is sideways on a rock currently

It doesn’t look good but that looks more like a bubble tip as mags don’t have white saturations around the mouth

Are you able to set up a QT tank for treatment ?

Okay maybe it is a bubble tip. I don’t have a qt tank currently but would like to save it somehow so maybe I’ll get one going.
