Hermit carrying anemone: Hemit Died

[barnabus's gimp]

the hermit crab carrying 4 anemones in my tank has died, the anemones are still alive for right now, one looks like it is oozing waste that maybe the hermit used to take care of. my question is, are these anemones going to die? should I put another hermit in there?

Got a pic? Identifying the type of nem would be the first step.

yeah I guess it's supposed to do that, I saw some crabs eating the waste off the anemone.
