I've only had this maybe a week and a half. On day 3 is shriveled up real bad like this and I moved it to a shady corner of the tank. Recovered in an hour or so after.

Since then it's been great, fed it a bit of table shrimp once and some mysis every couple days. This morning 1.5 hours after lights on the lightward side was shriveling up, but also noticed mouth open and it apparently shitting. Another hour later and it is shriveled as seen below.

Water parameters good. I did have a siphon break in the night so according to thermometer it got down to like 76, and heater now has it back at 78 over the course of a few hours so I don't feel it's that.

don't feed it, let it get it's energy from the light. If it starts eating its own tentacles then you should feed it very small amounts.
