White anemone (brown patch)

[Doughbwahh]

Can someone be kind enough to confirm what this is? I've read that anemone turning brown is a good thing. But I'd just like confirmation? The brown patch on the left hand side is on its flesh behind the tenticles and you can see it on the front slightly. Should I be concerned?

Many thanks.

That is the color on the column of the anemone. When he regain his zooxanthellae, the tentacles will turn brow first, like dirty looking whiter tentacles.

Ah OK. Yeah that's what I had read. Thank you orion. Just wanted to make sure. I'm watching it now and it's currently turned inside itself. Looks like a ball. Why would it do that?
Does this a couple times a day and then opens back up again? Not sure if it's lighting? He has positioned himself in the crevice. So can't see it being that?

I understand it can be to expel waste. But it's been fed once since we've had it in the last week and half. So I'm pretty sure it shouldn't do this often. On the plus side. It hasn't moved since the first day we got it
