Anenome issues

[RickGemme]

My two anenomes no longer open to anything close to the size they did when several monthes ago and i think i may actually be losing one as i rarely see it open it anymore. the sick one has become bleached too which i know can be a side effect of not having enough light. what im looking for is the main reasons that anenomes stop opening as large? thanks

I am new to anenomes and corals, but I have 2 anenomes and when they start to shrivel up I feed them raw shrimp and within a day or two they are huge again. I was told they need to be feed about twice a month.

How old is your tank? Whats your lighting? Whats your water paraments? Anemone usually defaltes at night, but if your anemone is deflate for day/night for a long time then something is wrong/bad.

It depends on the anemone. The more healthy it is the less feeding. If its a bleach anemone then feeding 3x a week with good lightings would be best.
