Yup, it happened! My RBTA split and the clone started moving. When it came to rest, it was within reaching distance of a couple Acro frags. Shockingly, one for sure has been stung. :mad: I now have white tips on my Myagi Tort frag. I moved it away from the offender and will try to get the wanderer out of the tank.

Is there anything I can do (besides removing the RBTA) to save the frag or is it going to be toast???

Thanks why I don't mix any anemone anymore in my tank, unless it is just an anemone clown tank.

I've had:
-BTA sucked in my PH
-BTA stinging my LPS/SPS
-BTA Killing zoa colonies
-BTA clogging up my return flow

overall, just not worth keeping them.

Sorry about your unfortunate experiences with them.

Base is still colored up. Tips appear to be skeletal. Does not appear to be any further recession of tissue. I'll try to post a picture later.
