Help! Is my bubble tip anemone ok?

[bethclowes]

Purchased a bubble tip anemone yesterday, acclimatised for over 2hrs. When placed in tank it took a strong foothold and ha a very slight wander (talking 2-3 cm). Came home from work today to find it hanging by a thread face down in the sand. Carefully placed upright back on the rock but it seems to be going back down the same path. Very deflated and looks really unhappy. Is this just part of it settling in or should I be concerned?

i would be concerned that looks like crap.. what are your water parameters? do you have a better pic?

I can't test them atm, annoyingly ran out of all the stuff and waiting on delivery, but I did a change yesterday and all other corals seem fine. I did think it looked bad.
I have more water but I'm worried doing another change in case it's more hinderance than help.

sorry - best I can get

I think you should get your water tested ASAP.

it looks very stressed. you should test your water as suggested above.

How did u acclimate the anemone? 2 hours seem too much. I drip my anemones for 30 minutes and in they go.

I just put my nems in right away without any issues but your parameters have to be on point. I have done this with my gig, mag, haddoni and all 5 of my BTA's but again my parameters were good to go.
