Follow link to pic. I am so paranoid over this anemone. Everyone says they are so difficult, and I don't know what to look for. He has pushed his face agaist the rock most of the time. Here my thought, the place I got him I know does not give GREAT care to all of there animals. I doubt they do 100% of what's needed for the anemones. How do they keep them alive??? I'm actually checkin this little sucker in the middle of the night. Don't know what I expect to see lol. What do you think?

Its definitely not dead. They will start to disintegrate quickly when they die. If you feel its not doing well is it possible to set up a hospital tank for him?

Just so your aware, if it does die on you, be sure to siphon them out ASAP to prevent contaminating your entire tank.

In your first post about the nem, you said your nitrates there what? Was it 20 or 40? Either way, do a water change and try to bring that number down. Don't be afraid to get the nem where you want it (for it's own good) in an area with good light and good flow. I've taken a LR out and set the nem on it. It works best if the rock has a depression or good size hole for the nem to set it's foot in. Then take some soft netting (like bridal veil) and very softly cover it and hold the netting to the rock with a rubberband. in 3-5 days it should be attached so you can cut the rubberband and remove the netting.

Hope that helps.
