I'd do 15% daily for the next week and add new carbon if you dont have already. Try to remove any remnants you find, good luck

sorry to hear that, the big problem with anemone is that they get ground up and don't die right off, two things float in the tank, neumatocysts and terpen lie compounds that are toxic to the fish in the tank. Who knows what else will be released in the tank, but that much protein/gelatinous material is fodder for the bacteria and plankton in the tank, they will bloom unless you remove these substances, and cause an ammonia spike. Remove (as mentioned earlier) as much as you can of the body, then do the water changes, run activated charcoal, and run the skimmer on high! This will do the things necessary to remove those substances which would either foul the water or be toxic to your critters. I hope this helps...

Disastrous!!!


I came home late last night to find that my carpet anenome was stuck in my powerhead! It had clouded up my tank and all of the inhabitants were shriveled up!!! I did an immediate water change, about 15%.

Do you think I should change more again? It seemed to be doing better this morning before I left for work. But I won't know for sure until the lights come on.
