The little 4cm clown has been trying to nurse it back.
So far all I could think of doing was topping the tank up with fresh water and turning the lights off. Right sided the anemone. It put its foot back down but is now trying to squish itself under the rock... I'm so confused about what happened.

if its not eating whole chunks i would take a turkey baster and shoot the bloody/brine shrimp over it, that seemed to help mine... it didnt go brown or float but it did shrivel up and open its mouth WIDE
