the lighting program hasn't changed over 18 months, and his mouth is currently 'everting' 1" of intestine...any other ideas?

Before he shrank, he was the size of a dinner plate.
He still has about a 1/2" 'eversion' or piece of innards sticking out about 1/2"...any idea what that is or what I can do for him?
Thanks much for all the thoughts!

Have any changes been implemented in the past two days? There's a few things that could be done, but if you want to know what the "trigger" is, only change one at a time.
1. As some have said, you could increase the lighting with simple timers, changing bulbs etc. I still think the lighting is a bit low.
2. If your clowns are really hard on the nem, you could put a small strawberry basket around it - or something equivalent - to keep the clowns out of the anemone while it heals. Try to pick a basket that doesn't clock too much light, however, as this will cut out a little light.
Is he still sticky? Could always try target feeding some mysis or ffinely chopped fresh shrimp or silversides...

his tentacles seem sticky, but they're all drooping, so it seems like it would be very hard to eat...more importantly, there is still this 1/2"-1" eversion coming out of his mouth, which would make it impossible to eat...
three or four days of the MH lights being on 6-7 hours a day, no change.

I'm without a computer right now, but I'll try to get to one tomorrow. If anyone wants a preview, I can email one now. Hopefully post tomorrow night.
For the record, tomorrow is day 13.
