Carpet anemone in power head

[Mikemilly245]

Had a power outage last night and I think that’s the cause to all this. Woke up lights were on all night and this …

All I really wanna know is will it recover once it walks out? It’s a big one like 8+inches fully extended. I really love this thing. What should I do? I’m not gonna pry at it or anything. I have power head covers too but took them off recently because of flow issues HELP

It depends on how much or if it was injured. You can pull the powerhead out with the nem still in it, put it in a bucket and very gently remove it from the powerhead.

Update : it’s finally out of the powerhead. Still a big chunk left in there. This is what’s left. Tips on caring for it? It looks pretty bad but people are saying 110% chance of survival if done right just want some pointers on how to nurse back to health

Foot seems untouched mostly just tissue , I don’t think it got the mouth either

Very resilient inhabitant.
Do nothing but leave power head off.
If he stays stuck by foot, that’s a great news.
He will work his way out

Looking at it now it’s so hard to believe he will ever be the same… I mean he was massive didn’t ever think he’d even float
I think foot is sticking

Zero you can do, without the risk of further stress or damage.

He may have let go when flow was interrupted, and drifted into the wave maker.

Not overly unusual.

Let’s see what 24 hours brings.
