RBTA split- Healing time?

[flamethis]

Hey guys, so I was out at the LFS When my anemone wandering into the powerhead.. A Koralia. I got home and my wife had unplugged it and it had untangled itself. But I was still worried about it polluting the tank so I pulled it out and put it in a 5g with soem tank water and a couple rocks from my sump.

It split that night and it's been 3 days and both halves are still clearly split open. Should I be worried? One half is very inflated and the other half is VERY deflated but both still have a firm grip on the rock or glass.

I'm just worried that they don't seem to be pulling the wound back together.

are they still in your bucket? becuase dont give them a best condition possible it's hard for them to heal.

Not a bucket, it's a 5g tank with a heater and powerhead along with some rock from the main sump but yes they are still in there.

Should I move them back to the display tank?

I would not advise moving them back in the DT. If you have any iodine , lugols, or coral dip I would dip them to prevent infection.

You can keep them in a 5 gal tank, but I would do daily 50% water changes with water from your display tank. This will help prevent any ammonia from building.

Excellent, thanks for the advice.
