So our anemone used to look like this

We went away for New Year's Eve, and came home to find our anemone had made it's way to the opposite side of the 6 foot tank and sucked into our powerhead. We managed to take apart the powerhead and get the anenome out. It lost it's color...turned white and shrunk. It has spent the last 4 months in the back of the tank hiding. A few days ago, it returned to it's original spot (which is now on the bottom of a cave with 2 rbta's above it...it's kind of nice, the clowns have their choice between the 3 anemones and the gsp in between).

This is what it looks like now..

Have any of you had an anemone get sucked into the powerhead and survive?
Did it ever return to it's original beauty?
