Hello I noticed my anemone has very strange bubbles instead of the nice round shaped I have seen in pictures. Was wondering if anyone has seen this before and any clue what causes it.

The Nem might lose the actual bubbles. Hopefully they will hang there but potentially I think yours will do this.
I seen a tank full of BTA’s and the ones in the high flow lost their bubbles and the ones in low flow still had them

I’ve had this anemone for 5 years now only the past few months it looked like this

Ok, please keep update this thread im curious. I’ve been looking for a bta with bubble tips to place in a low flow are to watch and see if it the lighting or flow. But I believe the end result will be who really knows and just an excuse to buy more bubble tips
 
It bounced!!! Just kidding. I’ve never seen anything like this, I’ve seen tentacles get twisted and look weird like this, but it’s a singular tentacle, never seen something like this where it’s all across the anemone. Is it eating, does it otherwise seem healthy?
 
Has it ever split?
Yes over the years split many times and before the splits it did not bubble like this. I will say I think it didn’t start till I added t5s to my radions for the hybrid set up. So I would guess light would be the reason. But I’m no where as intense par as most run so can’t imagine it’s that.

I don’t regularly feed it but do 3x daily broadcast feed so I’m sure it’s eating something. Yes otherwise seems healthy. I’m not really concerned with it’s health at this moment but would like to correct something it I can before it is a problem.
 
Adding more pics and a short video from today.

They look like the majority of ours, but we have a lot of flow and powerful lights so not sure which it could be
Yours also have some bubbles here and there ours gave up on them a while back
