posted in another thread but wanted it here too.

my magnificent Anemone decided to move after 8 months in the same spot. Unfortunately he moved and a few of his tentacles got into an uncovered power head. I know rookie mistake. I was just getting ready to cover them but put it off. Live and learn.
Here’s my issue. The Magnificent released it’s toxin into the water killing all the fish except the Clowns. I have done water changes and added Carbon to my sump. Will my tank ever host fish again? Anyone else ever went through this and if so what did you do to clean the tank. I don’t want to sacrifice any fish. I’m still sick that I killed my others.
Any help would be appreciated.

I had a condy get into a power head, I ran carbon during the incident and nothing died.

I cant say for certain if your nem creates more/less toxins though.
 
Maybe someone in tank chemistry forums has some insight to removing the toxins?
