So my uncle had a saltwater tank and he just let it go it was bad so he asked if I wanted he setup I've been doing freshwater for a few years and I had a 30 g sitting around so I got all his stuff I have 2 clown fish 2 dameslfish a star and an urchan and I bought a anemone for the clowns and its been fine till today I don't know what's wrong and I really don't want to kill it

Saltwater is a whole different animal that Freshwater! So much to know and learn, I would start looking up as much information as you can.
By the picture I would guess that the first thing that might be bothering the anemone would be the lighting. We need to know the parameters of the water and what type of filtration you are using to make a more accurate guess..

 

[Herbl]

I have a 60 to 80 g filter on it and a powerhead that pushed like 400 gs an hour

As for the lights i gotta save to get new ones

have been feeding it? I feed mine two to three times a week with a small piece of shrimp and the nem is doing well. Mine was looking like the one you have be for I started feed it directly.

Personally I'd give the nem to a friend with a reef tank otherwise it will quickly bleach out

Welcome to R2R! Glad to have you here! I agree with giving the nem to a friend or back to the LFS where you got it from until you have the proper lights and a little more experience and research done.
