Do you have a pic? Normally after that long you are in the clear.

I have attached a photo and video. Once its finished is will deflate and shrivel up under the rock.

you may want to start a new thread so we don't keep hijacking this one.

since it's been there for that long, you should be in the clear for health. your BTA looks very see through (in video). Is it getting more see through as time pass by? too much light could cause it to expell zoo, causing it to bleach and lose color. list your light specs, lighting schedule, tank size, water paremeter, etc in another thread

Picture of carpet under treatment. Its 3rd day under cipro.

That look like a BTA rather than a carpet.

 

[NYCBOB]

maybe its the angle of the picture. its definitely a mag. unless liveaquaria sent me the wrong thing 4 weeks ago. all of my bta looks nothing like this one.

Your post said carpet anemone. Can you buy an LED spotlight from Lowes? That will probably work out a lot better than what you are using now. I think I paid around $15 for mine. It also would be a good idea to give it a rock to climb on.

I always assume magnifica is part of the carpet anemone family. I guess I was wrong. It will only be in the HT for 3 more days. The light I am using in the HT is a clip-on I used to use in my fuge. I dont have any spare rock.

 

[OrionN]

It can be a Magnifica

Looks like it may need more than 3 more days. It should stay in there until it looks totally healthy.

 

[NYCBOB]

totally heathy means no more deflating and open mouth? this is my first try outside of bta and lta.

 

[ca1ore]

Yes, I always keep treating until no deflation and a tight mouth. I've done up to 10 days before.

 

[NYCBOB]

After 7 days of treatment, the mag was moved to display tank. The first 3 days, it looked fine. The last two, not so hot. The mouth was always closed, but the tentacles looked frail and the mouth sometimes expel brown string. Should I put it back into
Treatment?

 

[OrionN]

Picture of him at his best and worst would really help to decide on treatment

 

[NYCBOB]

This is second day in DT looking ok. Not the best pic. My light is very blue.



The last 2 days, its been deflated but mouth closed. Is it possible it was light shocked?

 

[OrionN]

Should post a picture of him at his worst today or yesterday. That is what you should use to decide if he need treatment.

 

[NYCBOB]

This is at its worst.

 

[OrionN]

If that is his worst then no treatment needed. He seem retracted a little but not deflated

 

[NYCBOB]

Thanks.
