Got this HUGE carpet anemone at petco they were actually floating it in the bag so I asked if I could take it that way to reduce stress and they agreed. Once I got it into my temporary tank it was even bigger than I thought lol. The next day it deflated completely, guts out and melted, I was absolutely sure it was going to die. This morning I wake up and it’s completely opened up and huge again This thread is for anyone that’s scared of their new anemone not surviving. As long as the water parameters are great you should usually be successful, but there is no guarantee if it is already previously sick. My friend actually named it Coochie, so this is Coochie the carpet anemone.
