Hi Marc,
I'm afraid we'll need a little more information than that.
Firstly, what type of anemone is it and how long have you had it?

From what I've read white anemones are not a good thing, this means that all the zooxanthela which feeds the organism has bailed out. It looks like the anemone could be recovering in your tank and therefor returning to its former glory. Does is have bubbles on the tenticles?
It sounds like a malu anemone which most of the time come as white because of the long journies they have to endured. White is to show it's bleached.
Well done:D
Sounds as though your nem is recovering and is regaining its zooanthelae,Malus often die due to being bleached ive seen many poorly ones in my LFS's that slowly decline.
Has it any colour on the tips?
Thanks
Elliott
