Okay so I just posted about what I thought was my maxi mini. Turns out its a heteractis malu anmeone (thanks for properly identifying it!) Its been soooo healthy and just now it started turning inside out. Should I toss it? I don't have a quarintene tank and I don't want it to nuke my tank. What should I do!?

As you can see the foot is being sucked out its mouth. I have no idea what's causing it either all my water perameters are perfect. So is temp and salinity.

They do this from time to time. Well, at least my Rock Flower anemone's do.
After about an hour mine are back to normal. This may be the same thing. W-

Mine does this quite often - but I have a different type of nem. When mine pulls all inside it looks like a bright orange golf ball.

Not sure if it's normal for yours but my RBTA does something similar, and goes back to normal in about an hour.
