My green bubble tip anemone has been in my tank for one day and he has been ballooning up and seemed to settle in really well. However, after lights out I look at my tank and could see things floating around. I turned the lights on and there were thousands of bead like things floating around and now my anemone is all deflated. What's going on. Are these poisons? I don't want them too kill everything in my tank as you can see they're inside the anemone. Excuse my tank looking a mess as the lights were off for over two hours so everything was closed up.

Yup looks like a spawn.. Time to get the new water ready! What doesn't get eaten will rot ;)
 
It's all back to normal now. Was cool to watch but not so cool to clean up. Water changes, all the filter cleaned out thoroughly and the protein skimmer cleaned out. Mushroom is still sulking but I'm sure he'll get over it. My clownfish haven't took any notice of the nem which I'm a bit sad about. I had my hand in there the other night to turn one of my turbos the right way up and the clown darted into the nem then swam straight back out and hasn't been near it since. That was a few nights ago.
