Carpet anemone got into a mp40

[WGardiner]

So I found my green carpet anemone in one of the powerheads the other day. My question is will it survive? After I turned the pump off it pulled itself out and was moving along the glass no damage to its foot that I could see. It got cuts on two spots on the top part near the edges. I will try to get a pic of it if I can find my camera. I have moved it to the sand and it buried its foot.

Thanks,
Will

Just let it be and give it time to heal.

Monitor it closely.

What's species?

S. Haddoni. Should I try to feed it?

No it needs time to heal. Give it like a day or two before you try to feed and given something small and use selcon or some vitamins in it.

Any pictures and did it dig back into the sand?

Healthy Haddoni should not leave the sand. There is something that it is not happy about. Healthy anemones should recover but your anemone may not. See if you can find why it is moving and try to correct that also. Then your anemone will have the best chance of recovery.
My blue Haddoni moved due to too much current got suck in a MP10. I decrease the flow, put him back and he did great for the last year

It was a change in flow I believe. Changed amount of flow and set the mp40s to wave mode.

Leave it alone, keep the water pristine. A haddoni stands a chance to heal. Ud better qt it

Sorry to hijack the thread

I'm curiously thinking about the cipro treatment of smashed/propagated anemones. Don't know if this improves their survival

Ive had 2 incidents of anemones being sMased/Powerheaded..

1) Blue S. Gig.. rock fell on it, took a huge chunk out of the disk, I did a cipro treatment, had a 100% recovery

2) recently a new Red S. Haddoni introduced to my tank that went threw cipro treatment, after being introduced to the DT 3 weeks later he walked into a
MP10, got chopped up pretty badly, I chose to not do a cipro treatment, and let him recover on his own. had a 100% recovery

My thoughts are if the Anemone is healthy from the get go... It will be fine..
I didn't need to do cipro on the blue s. gig, but I like to panic sometimes..
For the red, I monitored it really closely, and if I woulda saw it starting to go downhill I probably would of did a Treatment of some sort.

i dont have many experiences of roamin anemone. basically mine behaved and stayed put

ritteri seems impossible to recovered from a smash--but the one terminated itself wasnt healthy, sufferin the dead cycle of deflation/inflation. it was gettin better--closer mouth, shorter deflation but then got mad and walked into a tunze
