Waving hand anthelia

[Aiptaisia anemone]

i just bought waving hand anthelia and while i was putting it on my reef tank it released this slime that smell really bad. I was wondering if this is some kind of toxic stuff that will kill corals

Place it on a island, its a near weed, lol. That was 9 months after it was a 1" frag. That rock was about 10" across. Softies tend to release chemical warfare when bothered. Usually good to run carbon when you have a lot of them.
