Sorry to hear of your losses. I've lived through it myself. Your corals should be ok, mine were at any rate. Whatever it is that kills fish, only seems to kill the fish. I'm not sure if it's slime that coats their gills or nematocysts that sting their gills but for whatever reason it seems that they suffocate to death.

Ditto this experience. Sorry to hear about your fishes. Your corals should be fine.

Believe it of not I think the ritteri is going to live also. the seio pump consumed almost half of its disk all the way to the mouth. I placed the anemone in a hospital tank and it seems to be hanging on. I know this will probably be a long recovery.

Put him back into your fishless main tank. He will have much better chance of recovery.

I might do that if he does not seem to recover well

IMHO, when he looks like he is doing poorly, it may be too late.

WOW....I thought it died.

right now it looks like a 50/50 chance I do not think putting him in my display would be a good place for him to die.

Hopefully it pulls through. There is not much you can do on this one. Good luck.
