Anemone Q

[Brando]

Hi, I just got a greenish long tentacle anemone today. After acclimation i put him in my 55 gal. Now he looks like he has regurgitated some foggy, slimy substance. What could this be? Is it a goner? It looks like the anemone in the link below.

Is it brown? They can release their zooanthelles (sp?) when they get stressed. If there is plenty of light they can bounce right back .

There are a couple of other possibilities. Unlike more complicated organisms that have both "in" and "out" openings cnidarians only have one. Everything that goes in the oral opening results in waste products that go out of the oral opening. Anemones also release eggs & sperm through the oral opening. Without a good picture it would be hard to know which possibility applies to your anemone.
