This morning, note the stringy looking matter in mouth and around tentacles, it appears to be attached where ever they are.

Those are mesenterial filaments - them coming out is rather a bad sign.

They were only noted to be coming out around the tentacles at first and only the mouth today. It still is responding to touch and protecting the mouth by closing up

This is right after the light went off and before tonight's tx.



To me it is improving a lot, I noticed today there appeared to be a mucus film excreting from the outside. Almost like a layer of the exterior flesh.

Levaquin is a much more expensive medication. If you want to use it, you should use it the same way as Cipro

Anemone is now very responsive to touch and seems 100% better. It still is currently in the ht tank but without tx. I am truly amazed with how it looked like a goner when first started and now it's doing great

Hi guy's

I buy an anemone two weeks ago , I 'm not sure if it is a heteractis crispa or malu... sold as a crispa..

I had in my DT tank for 1 week and did not fix by foot and never eat.
After reading this post I decided to go ahead with the treatment of ciprofloxacin.

But putting it in my QT I noticed that the anemone had a foot injury.
I read that foot injuries can become infected and killed the animal, so for this reason I was doing the treatment as directed, cipro 250mg in 10g tank.

This is my QT
15g tank but filled with 10g of water.
50w Heater
Pump
Air pump
Par 38 rapid LED

Picture




The ciprofloxacin



Day 1



Foot injury day 2



Day 4




Day 5



Day 6



Day 7




After 7 days of treatment I do not see much improvement ... it is not fixed by the foot and deflated tentacles.


What should I do?
It was a good idea to have used cipro?

Thank for your help!!
Eric

the foot appears to be getting better. I may DC TX and observe another few days. I will begin to treat my RBTA which is in bad shape and will post them here as well following Mihn's method.

Deep thanks to all that have contributed. Also, I was on vanco IV for 12 weeks due to a spinal infection. I know it was all a joke but I'm nearly 20k in debt for meds and infusion alone for one infection.

Hey guys I'm currently treating a mag that I got from DD last week. It arrived in good condition and started to look even better during the dripping process. I placed it directly in my DT since I have no other anemones in the tank and since it seemed so healthy. The first 3 days it continued to look good and my clowns went in it the first 2 mins of being in the tank, then out of nowhere in suddenly deflated for the first time halfway through the day time light cycle. Since I had Cipro on hand and a HT ready I took it out and began treatment last night, 250mg to 10g. It now looks worse then the day it was shipped. My question is should I boost the Cipro to 500mg or continue with 250 and hope for the best?

Tonight after 24hrs of Cipro



Saturday night before first deflation


Any help would be greatly appreciated

I hate to jinx myself but now going on 48hrs and just started the daylight cycle and it looks a little better. I do remember reading that sometimes they look worse before looking better. Fingers crossed
