Default Is my XENIA DYING??? HELP

I just purchased a Silver pumping Xenia frag this past weekend, I acclimated it to the temp for 1/2 hour, rinsed it in fresh water (a quick dip) and put it in the middle (from the bottom) of the tank. At first it opened up and was pumping nicely, looked healthy for the rest of the day but lately it is curled up into tight fists and seems to be sagging. When I purchased it it was beautifully full and pumping nicely, at least 4x's the size it is now.

It was close to an long tentacle anemone that may have stung it so I moved it away yesterday, this morning it looked worse, like it is getting thinner so I moved a little higher.

The tank has good water movement, I have several other soft corals in there like Kenya tree and frogspawn doing nicely.

Has anyone any ideas on what to try, move it lower?? Does it seem normal
