Did it come on a piece of rock or did they rip the foot removing it from rock? Not much you can do but watch it and offer food. It's bleached so it needs food.

It came like that on the rock I didn't not notice it... At the store nor I tried to remove it from the rock. is it known to recover from injuries like this ?

 

I will try to feed it

Feed it small stuff though at first like small mysis. I don't think you'll have as much success going right for the silver sides.

Yes they can recover doesn't look that bad to me. Feed it small pieces of krill or mysis to start.

So it let go of whatever mysis it grabed it couldn't close all the way because it's half cut I might have to turn off the water pumps and filter or cut a 2litter bottle and try target feeding again... I wish there was something else I could do about this don't want it to die

Put the mysis in frozen,it'll help it stay together,cut all water movement off prior. If not mysis try small fish food pellets,I feed my couple bubble tip anemones this sometimes if mysis is trouble for you atm

Just give it so time. It's probably hurting a bit. Did you get it at petco?

Leave it be. Don't try to mess with it,if it's not getting light back there don't worry immediately, after a few days if it still isn't out try to move it under light so it doesn't waste away.
