Happygirl142 Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 Hi, this is my first post. Looking help please. I bought my first anemone 2 days ago. Last night he got sucked into my into sanitizer. I was able to take him out but he looks very dead but I’ve heard they can be cut up and survive. is he too far gone? my set up is only 8 gallons so he was not big to begin with. When fully open he was 2 maybe 3” wide First pic in now other 2 pics are from last night thanks in advance for your help Quote Link to comment

debbeach13 Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 I do not know if it can recover. A dead or dying anemone will smell and pollute the tank so keep checking for any terrible smell. Quote Link to comment
Happygirl142 Posted April 24, 2022 Author Share Posted April 24, 2022 I don’t think the foot is attached to the rock but It’s really hard to tell what’s what the way it is Quote Link to comment
Happygirl142 Posted April 24, 2022 Author Share Posted April 24, 2022 I think the foot is now attached to the rock! Quote Link to comment
NoOneLikesADryTang Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 If the foot is attaching, it’s got a shot at recovering, but it’ll need time and stable parameters. At this point, I’d probably just leave it alone, and continue to monitor. Quote Link to comment

Happygirl142 Posted April 24, 2022 Author Share Posted April 24, 2022 Thank you! He has now attached himself to the shell of a hermit crab who is dragging him around 1 Quote Link to comment
