Is my BTA Dieing?

[GottisEgo]

He's in the back rock work. Mouth is open and he is deflated. At noon when I came home from lunch (and target fed him Brine Shrip) he was inflated. Is he dieing or acclimating???

Any ideas?????

Wow no responses I see....

So, once again Anemones love to give us keepers heart attacks. His mouth has 95% closed up again and he started to inflate.

Its just acclimating itself to your tank..no worries..they do this often. They look really pathetic when changing its water, or getting rid of waste. They will do this for hours, all night or all day then return to normal.

hehe. it's normal. I would only start worrying if the mouth was perpetually open and a huge hole so that you end up seeing curly noodle-like things ...

We should totally post pics and make it a sticky of anemones pooping/acclimating, ect. to tell ppl NOT TO WORRY!! Most of the time, it's a false alarm
