    ok he says we have carbon (finally got him on the phone!) He's not too happy about this though lol. He's already worried everything will die...we just spent close to $200 yesterday just on corals and this anemone. I think the anemone is dead...the water in the container hes in is kinda misty white now I think from whatever he was letting off. He's not moving though.. i'm going to try to put some more water in but I think it might be a lost cause.

    Don't bother adding more or new water. The anemone will die if it is not already dead anyway. Go to the store and ask for a refund or exchange if it came like that. However, don't get another long tentacle anemone. It will sting the crap out of your bubble anemone and your corals. Eventually killing them.

    Yea I def am not getting another long tentacle... It looks nice and it was really big but not worth it lol. He died almost as soon as I transferred him. It was probably from the stress too cause it too forever to get him off the rock but I figure he was going anyway. We've had him for a day so there is no reason we shouldn't get our money back plus everything else in the tank is fine and the levels are all good. They can't really argue since his insides are sticking out :(. Do you guys know what other types of anemone would be ok with the bubble and the corals?
