Icon5 My anemone is closed up!!

Whats the matter with my anemone?? This morning it was fine, open, and moving in the current, then when i got home from school it was all closed up. Into a ball about 1/6 its normal size. My water conditions are great. Is it dying? My anemone crab is very upset with this, what do i do?

How long has your tank been set up ? It's usually recommended to wait 6-9 months before attempting an anemone. You didn't mention what kind you had, checkout Wetwebmedia, Aquarium, Pond, Marine and Freshwater Fish, reef tanks, and Aquatics Information for more information.
