Lobo VS Tube Anemone

[dirk_brijs]

last night one of my blue tangs must have pushed the Lobo (at least I think its a Lobo??) of its place and it fell straight on top of a Tube anemone.
Some pictures after the battle and decide the winner?
Lobo looks pretty damaged with lots of its skeleton sticking out although anemone looked a bit damaged too but I guess thats more cause of weight issues
Pic was taken 3 days ago.
Since then it seems like the Tube has recovered extending again to its max but I dont see too much action or reaction from the Lobo. Will he be OK and survive this encounter eventually?

mmm no one any idea?
Do Lobos get nuclear if they die?
still not sure yet if its even dying though??

Hard to tell from the picture......In my experience with brain corals, once skeleton starts to recede they don't recover.....
Do they go nuclear

If you are asking if it will poison your tank....NO it will not....I have had a few (sadly) die on me, and never had any tank issues...

I agree, hard to tell from that picture, but like Meowzer said, they usually don't recover.

ok thanks guys will monitor it closely now a few days later it still looks ok and it looks like you see less skeleton but that could be just cause of the coloratio of it maybe??
