Ever since my move about 20 days ago my bta hasnt had big beautiful bubbles. It's not showing any signs of dying or bleaching but it just hasnt bubbled up at all. It gets tiny bubbles in the morning but they fade out after a few hours they go away. What do you think? Does it still look healthy? I've also added a picture of before the move

The bubbles come and go. No one definitively knows why, but there is lots of speculation. In my experience the bubbles are not related to the specimen’s health at all.
 
Yes. If you want my opinion, the most important thing to consider for a BTA is that it has a secure spot in a rock to anchor its foot. A secure spot tends to make the anemone most happy. After that, sufficient light and flow.
 
Looks good to me! A good way to know if it’s doing well is it’s mouth (should be closed completely) and if it’s moving a lot. The more it moves spots the less comfortable it is.
Now I will say that it will move in the beginning and that’s fine but if it continues after a few months that’s when you should be looking into it

Its mouth is always closed. But sometimes the tenticles get pretty small to where its mouth is super exposed (but still closed)
Also it moved alot at first then it settled down and hasnt moved in 15 days

Sounds fine. Mine will deflate and inflate all the time.
 
Yep lol only thing that stays consistent is the clownfish hovering over it ready to bite you if your hand comes anywhere near it while cleaning the glass.
Oh my gosh my clownfish were so nice to me until I got a BTA. I have a small tank so basically anytime my hand goes in there she is in attack mode.

My clowns are sweethearts I've never been bitten. I have had an emerald crab jump on my hand and get me
 
Looks healthy and happy

Lol ya seems like it’s still trying to figure out where it wants to be just leave it be and it’ll eventually settle in nice. And once it finally feels comfortAble that’ll be when you see it start really coloring up and possibly bubbling for you

After closer inspection he is angry because my Mexican turbo snail rammed him
