I have never seen its mouth covering its tentacles like it's inside outs. Thank you forehand for sharing the wisdom you have learned so I don't kill fish

About a week ago... its just splitting its mouth into 2 isn't it?
 
While not the worst, that is excessive.

More details on your tank, how long you've had it, any recent changes, water params, etc. would help.
 
Tank is 1yr anemone has been in about 2 months... my last nem split and I gave the tank 2 months before o tried this one. The split pops in and out of the live rock but is visibly well I do a Wc 1 to twice a week but I had never had a nem "reverse bubble" like this any experience and tips to save it welcome I'm just trying to keep it stable withought changing too much I did change the lighting thinking it was too strong. I have a marine orbit current led running 60blue 40 whites 12hrs blue 5hr whites and 3 hr moonlight
 
And I did just start using coral frenzy 3 days ago but that did not look like eating too me
 
You have three anemones? What happened to the previous anemone that split?

What are your water parameters?
ammonia, nitrate, nitrite, salinity, etc.
 
tagging, I'll be back later to check this.

This is my third attempt to raise a nems the second attempt is still alive as a split so my tank is not too bad being it a 6 month old split from may
 
Are there any visible rips or tears in the flesh. this looks like it inverted the stomach. It could be a number of things. Were there any black or dark color discharges? Did tank temp spike? Fluctuations in anything like that?
 
Still need your water parameters.

How big is the tank/sump?

Can you post updated picture of this anemone and the split? also a full tank shot?

29g tank
10g sump
78 temp
1.25 salinity
Nitrites 0
Nitrates 0
Ammonia 0
Dkh 11
The only real change has been in the last 2 weeks I took my whits lighting down to 5 hrs. I keep my blues at 12 hrs. If you want ph I can check that I just don't usually mess with it if my dkh is fine

looks a lot Better I think it was just eating the coral frenzy heavy
 
Is that your protein skimmer in the far left? It is pulling a lot of stuff. Chaeto in the center. Is it growing well?

How often do you feed the tank and how much?

Yeah that's my skimmer it is working well. Chetao catches extra detritus nicely and doesn't have any visible die off. I feed the tank about every 2-3 days.. not really much visible cyano. I feed a mysis cube about every 1.5 days. And I feed my clowns small amount of pellets every day to encourage breeding. I also culture brine shrimp but the culture just went down. I feed those daily mainly for the red mandarin I have
