Anenome Clouding water???? plz advize
Please advize me on what this is ? I have a very large long tentacle anenome that has been growing and healthy for over a year. Yesterday it started to release cloudy substance from hole and clouded the water. In morning the water was clear again and now at night time it has started again. A search online has only mentioned something reproductive but no details.

Yep, sounds like you have a boy. Males release sperm into the water when they spawn, usually they spawn around the time the lights go off or maybe half-hour after the lights are off. They will become elongate and then release a smoky looking substance. Sometimes an anemone will spawn several days consecutively. Sounds like it is probably a healthy male LTA. Anemone spawn can be detrimental to other inhabitants, but it is a bigger deal when it is a female. The eggs and other spawning material of the female is more toxic and places a higher load on the tank.
