When terrorist attack inside my tank.

[Passinetti2007]

I was a victim of a suicide attack today. My sebae anenome for some unknown motive decided to blow himself up inside my powerhead. The massive explosion threw millions of stinging particles of himself into my clear water attacking every organism in my tiny tank. Luckily my wife was home and noticed the cloud inside my water and took action. It is because of my hero of a woman that my coral and inverts are living today. Thank you wifey. Now I'm cleaning up the mess and my pets have all been relocated to safer but temporary homes inside buckets until I can clean up this disaster. I took pictures of the assailant earlier and was going to sell or trade him for another coral. Doing this probably provoked the creature into doing such a desperate deed. Here is the perpatrator.

Hopefully everyone is ok and it will not be long until my tank is safe once again.

I want to commend the creative reporting you've shown. Good Job. I give it 2 fins up.

yyyeeeouch!!


i hate it when that happens...
this is why i will only do the rose bubble anemones in coral tanks, they seem to say put more than the others.
any anemone is a gamble in a reef though...

at least he comitted suicide after the murders...lol

I've seen that perpatrator's mug shot in the livestock forum.

Atleast you were able to rescue the rest of his tankmates.

just a good news update, the rest of the tank mates are ok, gotta go set the system up again.

It took a lot of guts to do that.

I understand you. I just had my new sea hare decide to get his head sucked into a powerhead and died almolst killing my sebay and linka star and some coral bleaching may also occur I bet :-(. My linka even had its center starting to be outside of itself a bit and all drooped in a pile . Luckily this morning it was back on the side of the tank moved quite a bit and looking very normal If it helps sebays usually stay put once they find there happy spot in the tank and provided light and flow are good enoughp .
