So I was doing some general mantinence and I messed up and bumped a ton of sand in my anemone, looks really angry, shiveled up and is secreting a slime. Will he get the sand off by himself or do I need to intervein?

I assume it would be able to get it off itself, my guess is sand gets blown on them in the wild. If worried about it, can you use a turkey baster to blow it off?

They def don't appreciate it but should be fine. Try gently blowing it with a power head or Turkey baster if you want but otherwise its a natural occurrence and it can deal.
