    I have a 110 gal Mixed Reef with 110 # live rock. I just watched my Seiso M1100 Spit out my anemone. I am currently mitigating the damage with water changes...just happened. I got all the pieces I could find. I have a very large Cleanup crew from reefcleaners...100 gallon package with extra brittle stars (2) and 2 peppermint shrimp. (Tons of nacarrius). My quesion is this...will my CUC get the pieces I missed?

    yes, i wouldn't lose any sleep over it. in my opinion, your tank is large enough to handle one dead anemone without much damage. i would do the water change and run some carbon (assuming you don't already) just for peace of mind.
