Anemone splitting?

[jhardy86]

Hi all,

Anyone help me out with this, I added an anemone a week ago and it started splitting/hiding. I thought it might be dying so I had to move it out of the hard to get to space it found. It has a hole right through the middle and is still attached to rocks but doesn’t look like it has kept splitting... tank parameters are right on target. Any thoughts?

Welcome to R2R!

Could you take a pic without the blues on and perhaps a closer one?

Is the nem mouth open? A bit hard to see. Is it fully attached to rocks?

Does this work?

 

[jhardy86]

It’s been facing down, the far side tentacles look somewhat inflated, it’s attached where it meets with the rock. I can’t see the mouth... he’s been like this 2 days.

With a hole all the way through like that id say its just a matter of time. Sorry

 

[jhardy86]

Yeah I was worried about that. How does a hole like that even happen?

 

[reef lover]

Im not sure...could have started as an injury and infection took over.

 

[EmdeReef]

Agree not a good sign, sorry

 

[jhardy86]

So they split and now are fully attached to rock. I can’t get a pic cause it’s out of my view atm
