Salt Creep Fell on my Anemone

[Fumbles]

Just wanted to post this since I didn’t see a lot of information on whether my bta would be ok or not.

Yesterday I bumped some salt creep into my tank and it landed right on my new bta. It immediately closed up and I thought I killed it. I only found 2 posts about my specific problem and neither provided an update on if their anemone healed.

Thankfully, 24 hours later it looks just as healthy as it did before the salt fell on it.

I’ll be more conscious of the salt buildup from now on.

It probably upset him for a little bit, but it'll pull through. It's basically a mini shock to them to have salt directly contact them.

Hahaha that it does, you realized it before I did

Agree they can shake it off, but if there is a next time maybe use a scraper to swish water around to wave it off some.
Sps like chalice or monti's will show burn spots, so try not to let salt creep drop on things, or again swish it off

Thanks, great advice!

Thanks for sharing! This will definitely help future fumblers.

Salt gate? Anemone looks good, glad it recovered.
