What lighting are you running? What kind of anemone is sick? What kind of anemone is doing fine? Have you tested your water (Ph, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate)
If they are different anemones they could very well have different lighting needs. We need to know the species and what lights you are running.

Yeah, what kind of anemone exactly?
How old is your tank?

the one that is sick is a long tentacle anemone, the one that is well is a purple tip. the tank is a 35gal and is about a year old and has the origional lighting that came with it. He looks worse than he did this morning and I think it is too late.... which sucks!

Original lighting, as in fluorescent light strip? If so, then you should definitely not have any corals or anemones under that lighting setup. However, if it is MH lights, after one year, it's probably time to buy a new bulb. I've kept corals & anemones in a 33g under 96w PC & 2 T5s before, but you need to be clearer about what exactly is your "original lighting."

Yeah a long tenticle anemone needs stong lighting for survival. Most tanks dont come with adequate lighting, you need specialized lighting
Trouble with anemones is, they look perfectly healthy, then they just die off, not much of a "slowly dieing" phase.
