I had one do that in my QT tank, had some corals in there also. Everything was fine except the anemone......keep up water changes to be safe.

how big is your tank and is it milky looking? do a 25% water change now and do another 25% water change in 2 days, if your tank is 100+G i wouldnt worry to much about it, as its just a drop in the swimming pool and your ammonia will spike but your skimmer should take the toxins out over a few days and shouldnt hurt anything

milky water = water change as soon as you can, if let alown it would foul up your water and kill every thing enless you have a good skimmer but youll have to watch your skimmer its probly going NUTTZZ!! dont turn it down just keep dumping it
