    My Anenome which has been very white with purple tips now has a few tenticles that are brownish. They are still fully extended and look good other than the brownish color. Also, it seem to go into it's sack more often (once maybe twice a week). Seems to be eating well, is growing and looks heathly other than the brown and acting a little strange. Any idea's?

    One of the biggest problems people have with anemones is overfeeding them.

    I would quit feeding it or reduce it drastically and see if it does not do better.

    Mine shrivels up every other day.

    Probably all OK.
