LTA Problems

Just added a LTA and 2 maroon/gold clowns. When I added them the ph spiked acidic. I did a water change and now he has a clear slime coming from it. Any time it has gotten settled on the rock the clowns have knocked him off. I got the ph fixed and now some tentacles are shriveled with its mouth exposed. What could be wrong and how do I get it to foot.

50gal tank with 45lbs live rock. Lunare wrasse lenon peel angel 2 clown 1 LTA. 20 turbo snails 25 hermits 1 pincushion urchin and the anemone.

I do not have a hospital tank or anyway to rehome the clowns right now. Should I try and frag it.

What to do.

Came home from work this morning. Anemone feather duster and urchin all DOA. took them all out. Do I check levels. Water change. PLEASE HELP!!!
 
You cant just fill tank with sea water and throw there anemones and fishes except plastic ones....
How old is that tank?
What are NO3/PO4 levels etc etc etc....
 
Need more info about your set up. How old is the tank? What are you water params...ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, pH, salinity, temp.
 
Sounds like a water change couldn't hurt. My sense is you're new to marine tanks. Do lots of research before adding an anemone, and make sure the tank has been stable in good condition for approximately 6 months.
