Mine was found like this on Saturday morning. Shriveled up, slime crap coming out of him...two hours later, he was vibrant and full of life again. No idea. I said screw it. If I find him on the sandbed, I'll pull him, but for now, not much to do but wait n see.

An anemone that is dying is one of the worst things to have in your tank, they release their nematocysts (stinging cells) into the water column and will cause a huge spike in nitrates and phosphates. This can cause a lot of other things to die in your tank. I lost a bunch of zoas and sticks from a declining anemone last year.

He looked like a P.O.S. for a couple days, n came back, full and healthy lookin...bta's are just weird creatures, I think.

So, my bible tip has been doing well for quite awhile...ate yesterday, and appeared to be happy. This is what I found this morning...

Wondering if I should remove it or wait it out.
