Anenome help

[Edb381]

From what I have read, they normally like a medium to high current, sand bed, medium lights.

We are spot on with all but the nitrates.
It moved forward this morning as if it is trying to get back to its original spot. After talking with my husband last night, it appears it may be an issue of over-feeding. He is home in the mornings and I leave early before lights are on in the tank. He saw me feeding it on weekend ( I usually feed once weekly with music or brine shrimp we give the fish as well) and thought it needed fed daily like the fish. Could that have stressed it to want to move?

Stop feeding it. I never directly feed my nems and they grow like crazy. If already stressed feeding actually makes it worse.

Yea, I believe it is a long tentacle,, definitely not a bubble. I had it in the sand to start and it moved itself under the rocks still in the sand. My sand bed is about 4 inches deep in most places. Sand starfish has displaced some but not anywhere anemone was.
I have calibration solution and test is before testing the water. Calcium 440 , dkh 197 and magnesium 1350

Clarification....it is a blue/purple tip sebae anenome. Stopped by lfs we got it from.

Usually it just gets a few brine from small cube that I dissolve in tank water in clean cup and use over few days for fish and weekly to sebae anenome

until you no longer have any concerns over health, stop feeding it.
