Anemone sucked up intake

Yeah, don't worry so much on feeding, they can go a long time w/out.
Light is main source of energy.

Just looked at pics, seem ok to me, and I've seen way more bleached than that heal.

Awesome. Thanks so much for all your advice. Would reccomend isolating in within the tank?

I would not isolate it or bother it, just let it heal.

Should be fine. Mine got sucked into a koralia a few days after introducing it. The surviving nem is about 1/4 the size of the original, but it pulled throught fine. My larger piece that did not have the foot on it did not make it. I believe that when a nem is "chopped up" like that it releases a lot of nemocytes, and can harm live stock in the tank. I did not have that problem, but another local reefer said he lost everything within a few days of his mis-hap. Maybe someone else has input on this. Good luck

I don't think a BTA has enough clout to take out a tank... If it was a carpet on the other hand I would be more concerned.

 

[Coral Hind]

I agree. This is a small BTA that will not pose much of a harm.

This exact thing happened to my BTA and it never came back. It slowly weathered away b/c it would no longer accept food or anything and I think my shrimp started to eat parts of it. Sad story.

Well not much to update today. Both anems are
looking fine still. Both are inflating nicely and aren't displaying any troublesome signs

 

[Coral Hind]

That sounds like good news to me.

 

[spajari]

No news us good news

Well, the small anem is looking ok but the larger one is looking kind of deflated. I've also got a green hair algae bloom now. I'm not sure where it came from as I only use RO water and i haven't added anything to the tank since the anem
