Well first of all im Sps guru but a noob in anemone. Recently I bought a green giagantae anomone and put in my main display. After a three days it look deflated so I ask my reefing friend Tony and pm OrionN regarding treating it. So I follow the procedure and do 10g fresh saltwater with 250g Cipro in a 10g tank with small power head n heater. This morning to my surprise I have 2 anemone in the treatment tank so I start pm and text to all my friends and they all say giagantae don't split in captivity. Well picture say better than 1000 words.

Day 1


Day 2

And here is a video
I'm going to keep doing the treatment and monitoring for the next 11 days to complete the process and hoping that I can keep both anemones survive.

Please give input cause I have no clue about anemone. This is my main display

Bta split from stress
Killed aptasia 4 inches away with h202

Are you sure? You are not the OP. How did you know that they are both gone?

What causes splitting? Is it good or bad??

For nems, it might be a threat response.
It must be good for the nem evolutionarily, or it would not be selected for.
