So I got a new slightly bleached anemone that I’ve been acclimating to my lights. It had a run with a power head a lost a good 1/4 chunk of mouth/foot and any tentacles on that region. Would it make it? anything special I should do to help it recover?

If its a BTA i would just leave it, they do fine after being cut most of the time. maybe a cipro treatment but i will defer to @OrionN with help in the that department.

There seems to be weird coloration near its mouth. Is that normal or beginning stages of rotting/dying off. @OrionN
