Anemone Question

[karo25]

I bought my anemone in late May this year. She's grown very well and seems to be healthy.

For the first couple months she's hid under rocks and then she started stretching way out from under the rocks. Over the last few weeks she's slowly made her way out from under the rock until she now lays her head over the top of the rock with her base wedged in a crack.

But she seems very stretched out. Lots of space between each tentacle. As she is now at the highest point on the rock, I'm concerned she's not getting enough light. The fixtures have remained the same throughout but I have decreased the white light to 35% and increased the blue light to 90% over about a 2 month period.
Do you think she's begging for more light?

Looks healthy to me. One way to find out if it is looking for more light is to slowly increase it until you find the sweet spot.

Do you feed it? Is there a clown hosting in it?

Mine are stringy too. I have a lot of flow, but your looks healthy.

I do feed it regularly but the clowns only avoid it. No interest in it at all.

What do you feed it?

Fish frenzy/Reef Frenzy/PE Mysis... which ever one I'm feeding the fish that day. I was feeding every day, a small amount (like 4-5 PE sized mysis). But since she's gotten so large I've been cutting back to 2x a week. It's never split and has never looked i'll. And I've never seen it expell anything.
