Anemone shredded

[starfishguy869]

Hello, my anemone has gotten shredded by my sicce voyager nano, and I don’t know what to do about it. My tank is super cloudy. Should I do a 20% water change and run some carbon? My ammonia is at 0.15+.

Yes, water change, the bigger the better. That level of ammonia will kill corals if it isn't resolved. Then carbon, after the water change.

I would do a much larger water change personally. At least 50%

can the anemone still be saved?

Also, will a large water change kill the corals? I’ve had a SSC RTN overnight after a 30% water change.

I don’t think there will be any harm in giving it a day or two to see if it bounces back, but if you notice decay I’d get it out asap. It doesn’t look like it will but you never know

as long as you keep your parameters stable during the process of the water change, no it won’t. It’s when you dump a bunch of saltwater/cold water etc in at once that stresses everything out
