They are very inflated, they are just smaller, twisted and folded tight to the body. As for the location, it moved in the shade on its own once it turned dark brown, so I am guessing that it has a lot of zooxanthellae now so it does not want that much light. There is still some light going in but it is dimmed.
I have never seen an anemone with such wierd tentacles. When I got it I tought it would return to normal eventually but it's not looking like that. Quote:

While I have no idea what if anything is wrong with your anemone but here is a pic of what they both should look like along with 2 clowns from hell

I think it depends on the type of sebae because some have shorter tentacles. Yours have very very long tentacles so it may not be the same type that I have. I doubt mine will become with such long tentacles because I read that my sebae will have tentacles of less than 2", yours seem to be more like 3 to 4". it is sure that they are still acclimating to my tank and they will grow larger and have longer tentacles with time, especially the new one, but I doubt it will look as they one you showed, at least I surely hope not
 But for now I am trying to find out why the older one has curled and folded tentacles. That's the mystery I am trying to elucidate. Also since the two anemones are touching each other and there is no reaction from either, can I assume they are the same specie? Quote:

When I first got mine its tentacles were short and upright constantly. It has grown a fair bit since then and the tentacles often look flat like yours. Not sure if it hosting my clown has anything to do with it. Its healthy so I'm not to concerned.

I had the same kind of anenome when I first got my tank. It was doing great the first 5 weeks and then the tentacles turned inward and it stopped feeding. Yours looks a little different than mine did but just be very careful if anything changes. You probably know this but they give off a ton of ammonia if they start to die and it willl really throw your tank off if it does. Maybe it is just deformed! It's a good sign if it is growing. Maybe ask at the place you bought it from.
