Default RBTA dying???

the RBTA I got two weeks ago decided to detached itself today from the rock. While is off the rock, I decided to quickly look at it's month. and found there's white stringy thing coming out from its mouth, almost looks like it's the part of the organ.

it's still fully inflated, and re-attached to the rock just fine.

dying or splitting??

thanks

Default

ammonia 0
nitrite 0
nitrate 0

a least low enough that I can't tell if there's any on the colour chart.

all 3 clowns are trying to host in the same anemone.

i would say probably just stressed keep an eye on it for a few days to a week to see if it gets any better , if the clowns are trying to host it thats a good thing they tend to get a distance away from them if they are dying
