Weel I am not sure. I think there is a possible "chemical" interaction between them. Maybe when introducing new anemones, the bacteria is transfered to existing nems already in the tank.

In my case the crispa was not looking very good before introducing the mag, and the hadonni was introduced at same time, so aclimatation problems are mixed with the theory of pathogen transfer or allelopathy.

I will keep going in same direction since I want to keep them together and I descart a complete water change.

The tank contains some sps and some LPS and the hadonni (the crispa I returned to the LFS to avoid more "influences" in the situation)

So let´s see how it goes when returned back to DT next week. I am using DT water mixed with antibiotic, changed every 48 hours. In last three days the gig is not so big as used in QT (but looks healthy). I will post pics tonight.

Thanks for your inputs!
