Have you got sorted
Yep I just need to know where to acquire quickly, and what medication to treat with and the rest is settled not sure why everyone is more interested in flexing their knowledge. What sort of medication do you recommend and where can I find some pretty quick?

Either a vet, or pay chewy for over night shipping for cipro.

How do I have a vet approve cipro for my anemone? Is that exactly what I tell them? Sorry I usually don’t handle medications and the like.
I guess make some calls. Vet is the only way to get "now"

But sounds like you dont know any vets in your area, so out of luck.

I know several vets just unsure of how they can approve a regulated drug to some guy and his anemone lol
If you know them, give a call, tell them whats going on. You have an anemone in critical condition needing treatment.

If they know you, they'll get you in. But when is another story and will cost more than overnighting cipro.

Nem is in big trouble if the tentacles are shedding.

Doesn't hurt to ask them.

I wouldn't mind seeing a picture of what this poor guy looks like.
