    Hey everyone! I bought my first anemone today. I acclimated him for a couple of hours and put him in my display. At first he was fine, but now he's all shruken in. Normal?

    Yes, perfectly normal. It may take a few days or so to fully acclimate itself to it's new environment, but afterward, will still deflate occasionally to exchange water, expel waste, etc.
