could my BTA be nocturnal?

[jcegt87]

ok when lights go out my BTA doubles in size and is HUGE but as soon as the lights go on about an hour in the BTA starts shrinking more and more

basically

lights out -- HUGE
lights on -- punnie

I'll just post my standard response to all anemone questions:

IT MUST BE DYING!!

Hahaha. Just kidding. I have no idea.

hnestly I did think that at first I was like oh crap LOL

It does look like its dying but at night it looks so awesomely cool you wouldn't think its the same nem

Sometimes anemones will shrink from the lights when they are bleached or about to bleach.But with 432 watts of T-5s,you've got plenty of light for it.
Try spot feeding it every other day for a while and see if that helps.Thats what I did with my BTA when I first got it.Now its huge and is out all the time.
It takes up half my tank when its completely inflated.
