Default Smoking BTA ?

Hi all
went to feed my BTA tonight and out of now where it looked like it was smoking! It continued to do this for about a min and half and became deflated. I have now spent the most part of tonight researching what it was doing and from what I have read this is how they spawn. I now have to go check all my levels do a water change as it clouded up my tank pretty good. I also now have a BTA looking half dead on the front glass of my tank. Anyone who has gone through the same thing your info would be greatly welcomed on the outcome of your anemone afterwards.

Thanks for your time
Justin

Sure sounds like a spawn ..

It will look pretty spent for about a day, then should come back. Yeah, a water change, maybe some carbon should help clear that water back up.

Just as Tony said, everything will be ok

Be proud if anything... having a BTA spawn is definately a good thing. Good luck.
