Sick green bubble anemone

[CuttleGuy]

Hey I'm hoping I can get some help with this but my anemone hasn't eaten in a month and is looking like it's not going to make it. I don't have much experience with these but it's in a 90 gal with a large maroon clown hosting it. I have another bubble in a 5 gallon fluval with a smaller maroon hosting it and it seems to be fine with the most pathetic light, probably a watt. My parameters in my 90 aren't perfect but are well within range. I have 4 t5s over it and 3 powerheads.

Couple questions:

How old is your tank?
How old is your anemone?

Something that can happen is a big clownfish can love a small anemone to death. I would recommend seperating the two for now, and wait for someone who has experience rehabilitating btas to respond as to what you should do next.

+1 remove the clown from anemone and if no signs of improvement are seen within a few days to a week then you know the nem could have an infection which could be unlikely because BTAs that are established don't usually get infections more info would be good hoe long has the tank been running and how long have you had the anemone

Tank is 2 years old and I've had the anemone for a month. May be right about the clown overwhelming it. My clown instantly dove into her when added. Here's a pic 2 weeks ago. Also what's a good way to remove the anemone, she's attached to a base rock.http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f36/StephanR7/Mobile%20Uploads/20160719_143930_zpsapfmfn1i.jpg (http://s44.photobucket.com/user/StephanR7/media/Mobile%20Uploads/20160719_143930_zpsapfmfn1i.jpg.html)

Ice cube in a plastic bag, rub it around the base. The other option is to use a credit card (or gift card or whatever) and very gently pry around the base. Try the ice cube first, see if it retracts and releases. Either way, be gentle, it looks pretty damaged already.

I would not recommend removing anemone that might stress it to the Point of death if it's already really stressed I would try to move the clown or take the whole rock out that the anemone is attached to

Looks like that tank is right next to a window? When you say, "parameters aren't perfect", what does that mean exactly? It could be what everyone is saying, big clown, too rough? I have found through the years with having BTAs that is almost always a chemical imbalance. Please list your parameters and maybe we can help it survive.

I would not try and remove the nem if the foot is holding. My question would be, if you did get it from the rock, where would you put it? If it were me I would try placing a barrier around the nem to keep the clown away. Maybe a DIY cut to fit egg crate 3 sided box.
