My Anenome is dead or dying. How do I remove it?

Hi,

My anenome is dead or dying. It has shriveled up and shown very little signs of life for a few days. All levels are good in the tank and other creatures are fine.

This particular anenome is still stuck to a large piece of rock. How do I remove it with having to move all the rock?

Thanks

if you can get a credit card down in there, you can work it under the foot until enough of it is loose. then you can grab it and pull it off.

That could be hard with it being attached to a rock. If it does die wouldnt it just fall away?

When it does finally die it will pollute the tank! Best to get it out of there altogether, I have heard rubbing an ice cube on the foot will get it to release. Also, directing a hard current on it will irritate it into moving.
