Hey guys,

Just put five new hermit crabs in today and I walk into my room and my anemone is completely shrunk (which it’s never done) and looks like hermit crab antenna are coming out of the middle. What should the course of action be??

parameter changes of any kind do this to nems. Especially big swings in parameters.
Yeah I’m just not sure what would’ve swung haven’t done a water change recently only thing I’ve done to the tank in last few days is add hermit crabs today the parameters don’t really change ever

You’d think ahaha, think it was salinity ran some damage control starting to look better now (pro tip don’t let the salinity go up by .03 ppm)
 
yes any parameter change will do that. Also heat. And boy o boy do I have a story about that!! Almost killed my GBTA!

And here is Nem Mountain!
