Feeding Carpet Anemone

[D-Nak]

Second day of Cipro Treatment. I know it is probably not going to help but it will be good to get the regiment under my belt.

Show us some photos. I've seen nems that look absolutely horrible that come back from the dead with proper treatment. Good luck and keep your fingers crossed.

I am taking daily pictures and will post the progression at the end, either success or failure.

Hoping for success.

You should post during the treatment so we all see it happening as its happening. We can assist if we are noticing things that you arent.

+1. A lot of times we're blind to things when we're the owners. Please share photos as there are a lot of us willing to help.

NSW is natural sea water it is a the term for keeping parameters in line with the ocean. It is critical to a low nutrient reef.

Hate to say it, but once a nem gets to the stage of that last pic, I've never seen them come back.

+1. Actually, at that point I think it's dead, though since is hasn't started to decay, we don't know it because it hasn't started to fall apart.

If no change after today, tomorrow will be the last day. Still has not changed today, but it is reacting. I knew it was probably gone before I started.

Still deflated but still sticky and think it stung me a bit.

Not sure when to end this.

Appreciate you posting pics. Pretty cool thing you are doing to post when something is not going well. Most people would hide it, want to act like everything goes well for them. This is valuable for new people like myself.

People on this Forum are very good. They all are here to help and I know I will learn a great deal from them.

This has really been a learning experience, thanking all for the advise and help.

Still no change should I end it. On 500MG for the last day still expelling the stomach contents. Slightly sticky but still deflated.

If it looks as it did in the last photo you posted, it's dead. The tentacles may still react, but the anemone itself is dead.

Looks worse so it is time to end it.

Thanks for all your help.
