For the new posters here: As long as the nem is just dropping a few tentacles, you shouldn't worry. Nems will sometimes drop a tentacle here & there, think of it as the nem trying to better balance itself against the direction(s) of the flow.

This is what happened to my RBTAs... . I am still holding onto hope that it will make a recovery. Is there still hope?!

Should you remove the tentacles that seperated from the tank? I heard pretty much nothing will eat them?

To be honest, I never really saw them. Of course, I saw my anemone not have tentacles anymore, but other than that, I had no other evidence. (other than it looked like it was also shedding?.) My anemone is has yet to inflate and is hiding under a rock, I have looked at it a few times and the mouth was wide open. From what I have read, that is a terrible sign, but it has yet to officially "die" so I have keeping my fingers crossed that he pulls through.
 

Going off the ledge: Would you be interested in a drop off aquarium?
