I think its safe to say its dead or to no point of return. Even though the nem looked sick in the store I thought cipro was a miracle treatment. Next time i'll buy a healthy specimen.
Heres a pic It doesn't smell bad, but some tentacles come off when I was touching it. B Last edited by salty160; 12/19/2014 at 05:42 PM. |

If the tentacles are falling off, meaning the nem is falling apart, then it's dead. Sorry for your loss.

Yes I too think it is gone to the reef in the sky.
Anemone under treatment does not smell, which is the smell of decaying due to bacterial. They can fall apart without smelling much at all.

thanks for the help guys, yeah its dead. I think it died for these two reasons: -I didnt acclimate it long enough to the HT as it didnt inflate once under treatment, just in the display and I used brand new ASW so even with water changes there were problems with ammonia. For future reference Im curious about giving gigs an oral treatment by taking them out of the water and putting ear drops directly into their mouth.
