10-05-2006 00:25 by wayne	my anemone has been suck up and through my powerhead and my tank gone cloudy ,what to do?
10-05-2006 07:56 by yanton	this happened to one of my pals, he suffered a wipe out as a result. big water changes. clean out your filter. get an extra filter running if possible.

Are any of the fish flicking sometimes when this happens it releases all the nematacysts into the tank and all the stock gets stung what sort of anemone was it? When keeping nems you must put sponges over all powerheads obviously this isn't possible with stream type pumps but generally nems do not go in to the locations that these are normally placed. It may also be worth while putting a lot of carbon in there to remove organics.

10-05-2006 12:14 by Alan	Pollutants are going to be your big problem then if the nematocysts were going to kick off they would have wiped out your fish within an hour or so.
10-05-2006 12:35 by drummerduck	I lost nearly everything in my tank from my anemone dying.... never again!!! I just contiunued with daily water changes like people have said.... testing the water untill levels dropped and stuff started to look alright again..
