CLS ate my Anemone
Well The nite before last was a stange night in my 90 Gallon. I woke up yesterday and was checking out the tank like always. I was looking and notice the anemone was missing. I was thinking it moved over nite. I did look at the CLS stainers and did not see anything. But as i was watching I started seeing stuff blowing out the output of the CLS. It was the anemone. It became food for the filter feeders. What a drag , I had it for some time and was doing so good. I guess you can say R.I.P.. It was only days after the large colt drop and hit the CLS . I did Save it. Nothing solt is safe from the CLS. I will only put hard corals in the Tank from now on.

CLS? Is that a skimmer, or? Sorry for the stupid question. Sorry about the anemone, bet the clown misses it too?

Thanks Guys, Yes Closed Loop System. It is pulling about 1900 gph. Just two much for soft tissue. It made a white cloud coming out, I tested the water and all is fine today, I was ready to make a water change if I had to. I still may this weekend. I just wanted to warn other of what may be a problem for them also.
Yes, a great group of people here on TRT!

sorry to hear that.
this is why i like coast to coast overflows so much. it distributes the inlet force over such a large area that this i not much of a concern anymore.
i have lost many a creature to the inlets of overflows/CLS's/ and PH.
