Anemone not looking so hot.

Hey does my anemone look bad, or look like its dying?

 

[James M]

Looks very bad. How long have you had it ?

 

[Gonebad395]

Yeah not looking good at all please tell us how long you have had it, tank specs , how old is your tank, water parameters.

 

[reefer134]

I have had it since last Tuesday, what should I do?

 

[reefer134]

My tank is also a year old, salainity between 1.024 and 1.025

 

[Gonebad395]

How did it look when you bought it because that nem is severely bleached and mouth gaping

 

[Hot2na]

treat it with cipro in a separate tank

It did not make it, i think one issue why is because my clownfish beat it up, it would not settle then my 3 inch clarkii would not leave it alone. Tbh at this point I think I maybe done with anemones. I only want anemone to host clowns but that is the wrong attitude and I’m tired of the creatures dying by my hand.

 

[Corey Baker]

Sorry to hear. Nems can be tough. Dont beat yourself up too bad.

Hey we all have lost a animal in our tank the positive about it is we learn from it how be it a dark way to learn you do learn. Make sure you tank note of everything like you said clowns, also your temp, salinity, light power I mean anything you can. If it happens again which I hope it won’t but if it does you can compare. These are all how we learn to prevent things like this. Please don’t let this get you down it happens. Believe me maybe not this exact thing but we all have lost something.
