    Last night the condy was moving around the tank to find its spot but i guess it went to close into another anemone !!! :eek:

    By the time i came inside my room, it was well inside so i slowly started to spread them apart and it let go quite easily ...

    I then put it in another little aquarium with the tank water so the condy can settle down a bit...
    But i woke up today and found it like this :-[

    Yesterday it was opening quite a bit but i think its dead...

    Is it?

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Unfortunately I believe that anemone is a lost cause.

    Test that water for ammonia, if you have a detectable level you will know it's decaying.

    Sorry dude. Water change, maybe a 40-50% then 25% weekly till ya get those lefels down. For long term 10% weekly is the way to go
