General notes:
Kill Loatheb-style spores to put frost patches down. Don't stand on them... yet. Adds will be off-tanked on the frost patches so they can't burrow and heal, and when Anub submerges, his target needs to run his tentacles into frost patches, either by running into them themselves or by putting a patch in between them and the tentacles.
When he gets to 20%, he'll put Leeching Swarm on us. Don't go nuts healing the raid - it does damage based on how much health you have, and gives it to Anub. We'll want wound poison/aimed shot/MS for this portion, and shields are good to help take the edge off of the swarm while the tanks still need to be kept topped up. Chain heal/WG/etc. are fine, just don't spam them.
From the looks of things, given the 80% slow on the patches, only the offtank and the ranged DPS should bother with the burrowing adds - it's a huge loss of DPS time to have to slog through that ice.
