Hey all,
I’ve had this anemone for quite some time now, but I’m not 100% sure whether or not it has passed on, mainly cause I’ve never had to deal with this before. If it is dead, how do I remove it? Also, any recommendations for anemones I can add for my clowns? Thanks!

cant tell as ive seen bubble tips come back from being chopped up, but looks like it might. Stir up a very low amount of water above it (just enough to barely move water on the anemone) with a syringe. If it is coming apart it is dead. Use a siphon to remove it if its melting

It looks barely alive but dying. Still has some color. I suspect it’s tank conditions doing this so if you sort out your water and setup it could be saved.

Do you think I can revive it? How so?

only way to save the anemone is good tank condition and maybe a prayer
