O MAN!!! I HAVE A HUGE ISSUE W/ MY NEM!!!! HELP

I don't know what to do ! this is the overflow for my RSM 34g. It seems as though he got sucked in or decided it was a nice place.
What should i DO?

 

[GSMguy]

dead anemone, get it all out and do water changes and run carbon

that's what i thought but it is still latched on tight and it curls up when i poke at em

Use your fingernail to pry up the attachment of the anemone on the tank side and let the anemone slide up over/through to your overflow. Then recover the anemone from the overflow and replace it on the rocks in your tank.

Then get some teflon window screen material and cover your overflow

Thank you! I have turned off the skimmer and one of my pheads. to see if maybe he can work on back through the overflow

I thought it would be. I've scooped my RBTAs out of my overflow more times than I care to think about.
