Worms on Anemone?

[candiecane]

Hi

Can anyone tell me what these are on my anemone? They’re on its foot and I think also inside it’s mouth. They look like a clump of thin worms?

Thank you in advance! :)

almost looks like it's foot was damaged.

Ya. I would agree. Looks like it may even be splitting into two. Definitely not worms, though. Looks similar to what I see when my mushrooms split.

I noticed that too, it’s seems okay for now. It’s attached and flowing nicely. Thank you!

I think it is splitting! I see the line already. Oh okay, do you know what they are?

 

[candiecane]

This is how it looks now.

 

[Phil D.]

This is how it looks now.

Looks happy to me!

 

[Angelwolf21203]

Yeah. Looks pretty happy to me too! Let it be to do what it wants. The brown squiggly things are like it's insides, I think.

Looks like you may end up with 3 or 4, if that's indeed what's happening.

Either im going blind or we are seriously looking nudibranch eggs or lettuce slug itself.

Sorry I’m not sure, the lines are brown? Someone said it’s their insides :)

it overall looks healthy with good color and normal foot blemish is possible

Those are mesenterial filaments from inside the anemone. What you see there is hole on the foot of the anemone with these filaments spill out. It may heal, it may split, or it may fester, infected and died.

Thank you! It’s splitting right now, so hopefully it doesn’t get infected and dies.
