Is it a BTA? What's it doing / look like?

Best bet for those is to leave them alone and see what happens. They're very hardy as far as anemones go and are fairly good at recovering from stress and damage, they often end up splitting if stress is the cause.

thanks bud for the reply starting to feel like ive botherd everyone too much, if thats true sorry everyone just an excited new hobbyists, but i had over did my 100g with algaefix abit to much soon as i realize i did a waterchange on all tanks, but i put the nem back in the 100g as i know the water should be best out of all my tanks, but i had also gave him a piece of food i didnt think was too big gave him a second pc and 15 min later he purged it all up, hes lost alot of color an real stringy an looks bad hes found a spot mostly under a rock, been checking water temp he has medium flow im just leaving him alone no spot feeding, Really guys if ive bugged you all i Apologize, if not for the good people in ARC i would have a tank id still be looking at pictures, so thank you all for you info an help

I think people are just busy this time of year. I've been much less active the past year or so, but I don't see you or anyone posting so much that would cause people not to respond.

Anyway, I would just leave him be and keep the tank as stable as possible. They are pretty good at recovering but in my experience it often becomes a, the more you actively try to fix things, the worse off the end result.

A good thing to do if there's any chance you might have chlorine in your water is to keep some Prime or other dechlorinator handy. Just put a bit in any questionable water before adding and you're good. It's an easy way to be sure. Sorry you lost some coral, that's always such a bummer.
