Added a Acid Rain BTA anenome to my talk 2 weeks ago. After the first day he went into a small hole in the rocks and didnt leave. I did my best to feed him but it was very difficult to get food into the small hole he was in. 2 days ago he finally came out of his hole and he is not looking good. I did a feeding yesterday and he definitely ate but isn't looking any better. Here are my parameters:

Salinity: 1.026
Nitrate: 0
Ammonia : 0
Cal: 460
Magnesium : 1380
Dkh: 7.7

I'm running the Triton Method. Any suggestions???

I can't find the sources, but I've read you shouldn't feed your anemone for the first week in an attempt to isolate any problems with the anemone. Adding food to that equation can make it more difficult to diagnose problems.

I don't want to tell you to stop feeding, but perhaps someone else can weigh in on this.
 
can you take a full tank shot as well as post your lighting schedule/intensities

Also 0 Nitrates?
 
I wonder if your light is much stronger than what it was under before, also agree chill on feeding unless just mysis couple times a week.
What did you feed it?
Screen shade over the top of it and see what happens maybe
