Is my anemone bleached?

[BadMatt14]

I recently bought a LTA, and it has attached under this rock but the mouth is gaping open and the tentacles are sticky but white. Is it bleached or am I overreacting

Hello and welcome to R2R first of all.
As for your anemone, it looks fine. Their are different colored LTA’s. If the light is too bright or dim, they will travel to find a happy place. Make sure to feed it periodically and do frequent water changes. If you adjust light intensity do it over days, not hours to acclimate safely and properly.
Best of luck!
What size tank and what else do you have in your tank?

It is beautiful and very healthy looking.

You can color this one up as @Coralreefer1 mentioned.

Thank you for all the info! I’m just wondering now why it’s mouth is gaping open?

I did not notice that...went back to the picture and saw...I wouldn't feed for a bit and keep an eye on it. Please keep us updated.

Thank you! Is that why it’s mouth is gaping open? It’s just getting used to the environment?
