tank clowdy after anemone plugged up overflow

[rockbender]

1 of my anemone went into the overflow plugged it up tank started overflowing tank. I noticed it when it was alittle too late. Anemone was done for it was shredded up and nasty strings.
Now my water is cloudy and hasn't cleared up. I did a small water change just in case and water seems to be getting cloudier.

It looks as if I would have poured some of the purple up additive in there.

I am lost here.

Massive water changes asap! How big is the tank? test all your water params. Try to get out as much of the anem as possible.

ah crap. it's about 60G. I did 10 gallon water change. I need to go buy water I am all out.
1 thing I did notice is the anemone smelled like a lemon when I pulled it out.

where are you located? and yes you need to do at least 25% water change, i wouldn't go more than 50%, thats just IMO. wait a couple days and do another 25%. if you have a charcoal filter, run it with new media, if not don't worry about it.

Yeah, do at least 25-50% but no more. Then in 3-4 days do another one like 25% and run carbon, when my anem felt like going suicidal through the powerhead i went out and bought a super cheap HOB filter and threw carbon in it. Worked good. And i ended up with two beautiful roses.

Replaced the carbon this morning. Going to get water right now. It's cloudy like when you setup a new tank and pour the sand in.
