What is going on with Anemone?

A BTA would stick to rock work, they don’t like sand.
If he was an LTA, then yes, he would bury in the sand, but not upside down.
If he’s falling to the sand then flipping upside down, that would certainly indicate a problem.
If his foot was damaged, this would be real bad.

Are you saying that he’s stuck, then travels to the sand bed, then turns over?

Was he bought from LFS or shipped?

What colour is he?

Maybe a pic of him and a FTS might help.

What test kits are you using ?
Levels are high

here is where you want to be:

Temp 77-79
salinity 1.025
ph 8.1-8.3
nitrate < .04
Phosphate < .04
alk 8-9
mag 1300
CA 440

Moderate light and water flow
 
API and salifert for alk
API notorious for false readings. I would suggest taking a water sample to a store that does not use API kits and have them test water and see what readings they come up with.
