Anenome on pieces

[TL44]

Today, my Bubble Tip anenome must’ve gotten caught in a power head and completely destroyed it . There were pieces all over and only a tiny portion of it was sticking to the tank.
this was in my QT with only corals occupying the tank …. Did the anenome release toxins at this point and ruin my other corals?

it’s only a 10 gallon tank with a HOB filter , wave maker and heater in the space

Large water change now. It released a bunch of now dying flesh into the water that is going to turn toxic if not dealt with. Carbon in if you have it. Clean your pre filters every hour or two until you've gotten most of it out.

Just did a 50% water change now. Added carbon and changed out the small sponge filter.

Does this impact the QT time for the other corals ? They’re currently on day 14 of a 45 day QT.

Whatever you're quarantining your corals for would not be affected by this. Do you have more water made? Id do another 50% immediately personally.

I’m just doing a standard 45 day QT to remove any unwanted guest.
the Anenome was under a 16 day QT since it retains water and could potential harbor , albeit unlikely, disease.
I’ll be doing another Water change . I have another 5 g or so stored.
