This nem doesn't have a foot.

I got a bubble nem like 5 days ago and it's just floating around many tank. Its been stuck in this crevice for the past day and it looks like this...... ***

Nice action shot of my beauty, Singapore Angel :sly:

 

try holding the foot part flat against a rock he should stick on in a few seconds or just turn your curclation pumps off and place him in on a rock for a few mins he should grab on

 

That anemone looks like a poor specimen.

I would not hold out much hope. You can try putting in a low flow crevice area and see if it foots, but honestly to me it looks bleached and some what starved.

Good Luck

 

I agree. It was almost a rescue type deal. Got it super cheap like 5 bucks. But the darn thing won't eat and won't settle in anywhere. What happens if it stays like this. Im not sure what to do with it.

 

I agree. This was a rescue for deal. Got it for5 bucks. Buy it won't eat and won't settle in anywhere. If this keeps up, I'm not sure what to do with it. Any thoughts?

 

Support for the double post. My tablet is acting funny

 

I don't think it will stay like that very long- it can't. It'll have to get better or it will die. Nems are one of those creatures that are difficult to rescue; once one's health deteriorates past a certain point, it pretty much a goner.

 

Good luck with the rescue.
I hope it works out.

Update... so last night I spent an hour trying to get this thing to eat something. I have shrimp. Not sure if this is the best for or whatever but it is what i have, i got it to hold one to a piece of shrimp that was a little bit bigger than the end of a pen. Pretty sure it ate it. Good news. But now it's as small as I've ever seen it. And the"arms" are deflated or heard of this happening after a meal but I wanted to see what you guys thought. Haha this thing looks bad

 

just looked at this post and you really cant tell where the nem is but it looks normal again. it must have eatin something cause the colors look a little better also. idk what the hell is going on with this thing. do you think i should feed it alittle more then once or twice a week?
