View Full Version : Amenone torn while moving rocks

So I was moving rocks and my RBTA had part of its foot wedged into a small hole in another rock...so it was attached to two rocks...

I was moving the rocks and felt a small tear on one side...and since then it's become deflated and I can see a small part of the inside hanging out...

Should I do anything? I've heard they survive worse (such as being sucked into powerheads)...

Just curious from those out there...as I'm concerned that I may have injured it...

run lots of carbon and keep up the wate quality.

LEAVE IT ALONE!The worst thing you can do to it at this point is bother it!Think of it like this: When some one is haveing muscel spasems they dont want to be touched or moved because it hurts.Same thing when it comes to anemones.Let him be and see what happens!

Listen to the good advise of the previous posters. Don't do anything more to irritate the anemone.

Well...how big is he/she?If he/she is bigger than 3 inches and bothers the foot I would just put he/she in a small speciaman container with holes drilled into it.If he/she is above 3 inches but dosent bother the foot to much I would just see how the anemone starts to look after 3,4 days.Hope this helps!

probably bigger than 3" but doesn't appear to be bothering the foot..just snuggled up in the anemone..which is deflated b/c of no light...we'll see how she does tomorrow with the lights on....and I did a water change today..so water is good
