How can you tell if an Anemone is splitting?

[smoney]

I have a Sabae Anemoe, And i have a feeling it is splitting. the center is all huge and alot more things like that. Its now looking like its throwing up its center. how can you tell if your anemone is splitting?

The biggest sign that one is splitting... is instead of seeing just one anemone.. you see two.

i was gonna say that but... someone was a faster ass than i!
signs of a splitting anemone are when it's expanding bigger than normal. when it's expanding sideways and forming an oval, or figure 8 shape. when its mouth is stretched more than usual.

Well, I really dont understand it, but the thing has been so healthy and now it appears all shrivelled up and dying.

I think if you see it's intestines it's not a good thing... I heard Sabae's are hard to keep.

When my BTA split it moved back behind the rocks and then after about a week it or They I should say can back out front side by side.

One of my condy anemones spit. A week or so before it split the mouth became very long. A couple of days before it split, the disc portion of the anemone became less round and more shaped like a figure 8. The day that the anemone split, it retreated to a dark creavice and didn't come out for three or so days. The next time I saw it, there was an extra one.
