he started to look sick a couple days ago. Today found him in the sand took a look at his foot and realized it was torn, he looks in bad shape but still holding on... should I toss it or there’s. Chance he could pull through?

man I hope he don’t get an infection he costed me $150 [emoji24]. Woke up this morning he looks like his grabbing on to the rock and his opening up. I’m leave both my circulation pumps off and just run my filtration pump. Hopefully he does a good recovery.
 
It was thinking of dipping him hydrogen peroxide 1 part hydrogen peroxide and 9 part tank water. But I did some research and turns out they use hydrogen peroxide to eliminate nuisance anemones and I’m over here thinking it will heal his torn foot faster

Ill try to Check up on it during lunch I don’t want him disintegrating in the tank. Just did a water change would hate to go to the hassle of preparing new water after work lol.
 
I've seen people cut them in half and they have been ok. Just make sure he's fed and keep him in a low flow area and I bet you that he will be fine
