My rock flower anemone walk toward the heater at night and got all shrivel up. It also spit out it internal organ. Are there any chance of saving it?

I agree, I haven’t seen one come back from being that bad. I did have one shrivel once, thought it was dead, next day-back to normal.
I’m in the process of putting together a “what the heck” thread for rock nems and all the crazy things they do, what let to it, how long they recovered, etc.

Good to hear you covered it. I lost a nice brain coral from a conch pushing it onto the heater!!
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
