Can't see any anemone, but the hammer looks dead

In the first pic the small pink dot

Then I'd guess it's not far behind the hammer :(

The pic looks dark, I hope you have lots of light on it? Clean water? It was big and healthy when you got it? It fed? Not too much direct current?

Really, not much to advise based on poor quality pic, but I'd say it's not good.

My personal favorite article on anemones

How old is your tank?

Love the article, has lots of info in it :) Thanks for sharing

My tank is been running for a year. The anemone was healthy looking when I bought it. I just changed out a crushed coral substrate for a sugar sand substrate. From all the forums I read everyone said the crushed coral was bad for nitrates and my nitrates were high. I'm thinking that is what killed my branching hammer and anemone

It depends how you did the change over of substrate, by removing it a lot of trapped stuff probably went into your water column and spiked nitrate, adding new substrate would have started a mini cycle so probably a small spike in ammonia.
So if everything was well before the change then the change of substrate is probably to blame

In his other thread I can see the hammer was dead before he changed the sand, but I don't see the anemone in the pic.

Ya, that hammer has been dead a while!

The anemone and hammer started to look like that about a month ago that's why I changed the substrate hoping they weren't to far gone and that they would come back

uploading pics here sucks. Best to use a third party host like photobucket
