Hi Jason, to TR!
I believe that it is possible but not common for Condylactis to reproduce by pedal laceration although the whole foot should not be left behind, only part of it.
My Condy has done something weird. A few days ago I woke up, turned the lights on and it was slowly spinning in the tank. Fully inflated and clowns doing their thing. I looked at the rock it was attached to and the foot was still attached. I am not aware of anemones splitting in this way. For the past few days I've kept it in a vented tupperware container attached to the top of my tank. It's eaten and seems fine,minus a foot. Speaking of the foot, it's crawled behind a rock out of view. Today, Condy escaped it's tupperware prison and is hiding behind my LR. Condy resides in a 24 Nano and hosts two Ocellaris. This tank has been up and running for over two years and water quality is excellent. Thanks in advance to any and all responses.

Condy has improved as of late. "She" has started to grow a new foot, I believe. It's not a full foot but she has attached to some chaeto(sp). Anemones are very interesting creatures. I'll try and get some pics this weekend. I've had snakes, tarantulas and lizards galore, nothing comes close to the amazing things I see and come across in my SW tanks.
