Can you give us your water parameters with actual numbers?

Can you post a pic of the anemone? What are you feeding it? Also please tell us about your tank, size, lighting, ect. What species is this anemone?

raise your temp up. It is way too low. i wouldn't want mine lower than 76* and no higher than 80* that being said. Mine stays constantly between 78 - 78.5 on a controller. Does it look like it is deteriorating? Your salinity is fine; however, NSW is 1.026 so I like to keep mine at that.

I feed my RBTA frozen mysis about 1-2 times per week. I would see if it eats something..

It's eating and I'll raise the temp and see if that helps
