Started Reefing around 8 months or so ago. After tank was fully cycled added 2 clowns and 3 nassarius snails (one died for some unknown reason but otherwise everyone seems happy and healthy). This set up was good for around 4-5 months so decided to add a bubble tip anemone yesterday. Acclimated BTA as you would fish over around 1 hour, floating then adding water as perimeters in my tank are slightly different than LFS. Seemed OK when first settled, placed in a low flow, med-high light area of tank (I know it will move if its unhappy but seemed a good place to start). When the lights came on this morning it has stayed closed up and just doesn't look as happy? Tests done and besides the KH being a little low (which is pretty usual for my tank) everything seems within range.
Is this normal for BTAs to take a little while to settle? Does it look OK in the pictures and do my parameters sound OK? Any changes you would recommend? I've not kept nems before and want to make sure it's happy and healthy.
