Part of RBTA caught in power head, a couple of question for help please!

[turbohb]

I have looked at Karen's Rose Anemone home page but could not find the info I was looking for..

The corner of my RBTA got caught in the my Seio and my water is now cloudy.I was wondering if I should do a water change or would this stress him out even further?

It was only about a 1 inch of him/her that got sucked up and it was able to retract it self after I shut the power head off.I then was able to inspect a little better and there is some brownish strings coming out of its mouth, are these its insides and If so is that a bad sign or will it recover?

There is a couple tentacles/arms that are secreting a white cloudy substance in the tank and is this toxic?

I am just hoping that it will make it and any info is greatly appreciated!! Thanks, Kayle

If you've had the anemone for a while and it was otherwise healthy in a healthy aquarium, I would expect a good chance of survival.
BTAs are pretty hardy IF they started out healthy and if they are in a healthy, mature system.
I had one completely get sucked into a maxijet, it was wrecked beyond recognition. I put it in the sump thinking it was dead and when I got home from work later that day it had it's remaining few tentacles inflated and actually looked kind of like an anemone again. It made a full recovery.
Just leave it alone and let it find it's comfort zone.

I had one that didnt move EVER. One day it moved from one side of the tank to the other in 2 hours.....and right into a powerhead intake. was sucked into it such that half was on one side and half on the other. Took off the cover and tried to get it out....nothing. So I just left it on the sandbed expecting to come home from work and pull it out dead. Dang thing pulled itself out and moved to the rock....next day moved to another place in the tank and been there since.
