hey everyone , I was wondering if someone could help me out...

1) I have some red purple stuff growing that cannot be removed even with a toothbrush. Yes, about a month ago I had a Cyanobacteria but removed it using chemiclean

2) my RT anemone is extremely small and will not bubble up nor will it fully extend. There is some white to it

3) I think it’s a babystar fish? Should I remove it? Keep it?

4) does my frog spawn look sick too?

How old is the tank? Anemone's generally should only be added to well established systems (8 months to a year)The starfish is an Asterina starfish, very common hitch hiker. Won't get any bigger than that, but can multiply like crazy. Frogspawn looks fine :) extended and colored up

About 8 month now I’ve had it for five months
 
Tank is good agreed all.

Cap feed the anemone, guaranteed method. Find the right sized plastic cup that fits over your anem

Cup the rascal, dome it over him, fish blocker.

Inject feed you blended up, not a whole fish, through opening in the top of cup. Calculate a max feeding dose for your tank of this occasional slurry

Use that amt. Fix the cup any creative means. Lift to release protection and cast the rest around the tank. Anemone will be stuffed.
