Hi folks. Does anyone know if worms atack the foot of a sebae anemone?

I have not witnessed it yet, but it could be possible for them to maybe tank a small nibble.. I'm also guessing they will not like the taste.

you got any pictures?

I am at work at the momonet but before I left for work I noticed the smaller of the two sebae anemones had lost its seat on the rock work and saw objects that might be some type of a string worm. When I get home if its still alive I plan on using a sterile Tupperware bowl and some tank water and seeing if I can remove the objects safely. I will try to take a picture or two at that point. I also plan on checking out the large anemone as I noticed it has lost most of its stickiness regarding its tenticles. Aftern. seeing what's going on with junior I have an idea the same is going on. Thanks for your response!.
