Anenome

Just died, i belive it was ateast.
Anyways, took it out, and everything in the tank is going wack?
Guessing it released the toxins? Is everything gonna die? Water change?

Big water change needed immediately or you could lose everything.

I'd definitley do at least a 20-25% water change,maybe even more, right away and make sure to clean out your filter equipment completely(including the intake,canister,etc.)I would also add some carbon that will help big time.Good luck.

You need to test your water for ammonia, nitrite and nitrate.

Did it fall apart? What toxins are you refering to? What does "everything in the tank is going wack?" mean? randy 12, thank you........test the water first before tearing the whole tank apart......make sense?

the clown was FREAKINg out, spriting from end to end, up and dwn. The 3 shrimp were swimming around too (which i never see them do) The anenome was dieing becuase i could see it was falling apart.
Toxins. Most anenomes release their sting posin when they die.
