What’s wrong with this anemone?

Not sure what’s wrong with this anemone.

This is a pic from 03/05/20

Tentacles extended, looks full. Happy & healthy, eating a piece of shrimp maybe once a week.

Then this is a pic from today (04/06/20)

It has lost most of its green color. Tentacles not extended/short stubby. White lines around mouth. It won’t eat anything.

Any idea what’s wrong with it? Or how I can save it?

The white lines are an indicator that it is a bubble tip anemone, has nothing to do with health. How old is the tank? What lights and flow are you using? My guess, looking at the pics, is that the tank is too young to keep it happy. Anemones require stability and most young tanks, regardless of your care, are still getting settled and stability is incredibly difficult to accomplish.

If it is an older tank, white rocks make it seem quite new, then it is likely light related. Give us as much info about your system as you can and we can try to help you better.

We had another 75g for about two years that crashed a few months ago. This tank has been set up since mid-February, some of the rocks are new & others were reused in new tank for bacteria. Water parameters seem stable, levels have been consistent/not fluctuating that we have noticed. Lights are SB Reef sBox Extreme 45". For flow we have 2 Jebao wavemakers plus flow from filter. We’ve got several LPS and SPS coral thriving and all fish are doing great.

Anemone started refusing to eat about two weeks ago. It had moved to the back side of a rock and then this afternoon it came back to the front and looks like this. Can I save it?
