Can someone please help me by telling me what is going on with my anemone? He was as small as a gum ball this morning, but now he is all blown up in size. Is he okay? I can see his insides and he is unable to move his tentacles. I have tried to feed him, but he is not interested at all in eating.

Looks to be a Condy Anenome. My Condy does that occasionally as well, always return to normal within a day. From what I read on articles, anemone respiration system are designed so that they respire by exchanging oxygen dissolved in the water directly through their integument. So unless its mouth is wide open and guts are spewing out, you should be okay.
