911 anemone

[Okay, I got a rose bubble tip anemone yesterday. It looks so deflated like my maroon clownfish is beating the heck out of it. Its deflated and the clownfish still is nestling in it. Is it because its in a new tank? Hungry? Or is this just natural? I don't want to lose this anemone. Help! I will post pics as soon as I find the USB cord.]
 
[It is natural but it is also possible that the maroon is betting it up. They are known for being rough on their host anemones and I read somewhere that the anemone should be at least twice as wide as the maroon is long to be able to with stand it's enthusiam.

Anemones will deflate from time to time but only for a few hours, if it stays deflated for more than a few hours than it may be in trouble.

Read this, it is where I got all my anemone wisdom. It is one of the links that is pinned at the top of this forum. http://www.carlosreef.com/AnemoneFAQ.pdf]
