A week and a half ago, our Rainbow Tip Anenome started to move around the tank and got close to the our torch lights and they both started to sting each other. Our torch light drag has 2 heads and the boy 1 got stung. Fast forward we noticed the left head just started to stay closed & last night, we were target feeding and noticed that the left head has been melted.
Is the entire frag injured? Can we keep the right head alive and thriving? I’m so sad about this.

Please notice on the picture , the “oooze” coming out of the left head (blends in with the rock)

It's a goner. Cut the dead head off so the healthy one has a chance. I would also recommend dipping the head that's doing okay in iodine/revive. Be careful cutting torch skeletons also, they like to shatter in my experience.
