YouTube - Yellow Carpet Anemone 4 I come home from work to find a tear on the outedge of the anemone,I have nothing but a cleaning crew in the tank and It has a whole side of the tank to its self(I believe its a baby(6-7in) yellow capet gigantea) I've only had it a little over a week now. It is still very sticky even being damaged. Last night about an hour after the lights went off I check on it and it was trying to move(from a 2 pound rock it was on) and hanging on by a thread, after 10 min of watchin it let go and as soon as it hit this big shelf rock it grabed on thank god. When I got up I went and checked on it and it crawled back onto the rock it came from strange right? Any Help on what I can do to help in its recovery would be great. Has anyone had an anemone tear and survive?

That anemone looks very bleached. Not good at all. What kind of lighting is it under now? Best thing that you can probably do is to feed it a couple times a week and hope for the best, unfortunately it may be too late.:cry:
