Need help with anemone please

[Dobyson]

I have a rbta that has been doing great till the last 3 days where it has been shrunk up some and the tentacles have been extra inflated. Today I noticed that 3 of the tentacles that I can see have what looks like openings in the very tips. Please help. I’ll attach some photos of the problem and 1 of what he normally looks like.

How long have you had the anemone? I don't see anything particularily worrisome about how it looks. This is the fish disease forum, you might try posting over in the anemone forum:
