Need Anemone removal help

[mom2ella]

Today I have one anemone that looks great and one I think is completely dead. It is blue and shriveled up. They are on the same rock? How do I remove it without spreading toxins or killing the good anemone?

remove the healthy one, as fast as u can (carefully) and place it in a separate container with some water from the opposite side of your tank.
then take out the one thats dying. its going to smell so bad u have no idea

it might just be taking a poo. nems shrivel up sometimes. if it looks like its melting, though, then yeah, its dead / dying.

When you say melting what do you mean the base the tenacles? When its taking a poo, how long do they stay shrunk up?
