If you just added it, it's going to need time to acclimate to it's new home. It will find a place that suits it first and then hopefully it will be happy.

Hopefully, you acclimated it slowly! Many times introduce livestock will not look as healthy and alive for a period of sometimes weeks, till it adjusts and its stress level is reduced.
Continue to monitor the anemone's progress. Check water parameters and also, what kind of lighting do you have?
