Rose Bubbletip Anemone is deflated and sickly

I'd let it be and give it time to adjust. I think it will be fine once it settles in.

Leave it be! If it dies you will know it is the worst smell you can think of it looks like it is getting better the foot is on now....................

thanks awilda... the LFS also had it under T5s. I don't have a filter, just skimmer and live rock so I can't run carbon :redface:
Should I lessen my flow a little to calm things down?

danelam, glad to hear the rbta is doing better!!

For the carbon, you can pick up a "Two Little Fishes" phosban reactor, and run carbon in it instead of the phosban. Or better yet, pick up two of them, and run carbon in one, and phosban in the other! You can hang them off of the back of the tank.

Thanks everyone for your advice
This morning the RBTA is still in the same place, but expanded and with full, bulb tentacles. It's a relief. I'll wait another few days before feeding it though, just to give it a little more settling time.

That's great news! I feed my RBTA small pieces of silversides a couple times a week since they are most nutritious. Occasionally I'll give it some krill or mysis for a little variety. The thing split in December but is huge again!
