Update?

Thanx to all who participated,here is what I was looking for..
As stated in the 1st post that I needed the common and scientific name to receive a free coral or the item you all trying to guess.
It is soft with no back bone always and never found with one dull color, have a disk full of feeders,take food easily but not required for its health,most of the time in the wild found with a friend a sexy shrimp.

So the answer is Miniature carpet or maxi mini carpet anemone,Stichodactyla tapetum.
Congratulations to

Thanks Eli, either a blue or orange one is great with me, you pick.

Congrats Lee9!

sphelps 04-09-2012 03:14 PM

Congrats Lee

Although I don't get the riddle, I must be missing something but how does the name maxi/mini carpet anemone remind one of the scientific name Stichodactyla tapetum?

lee9 04-10-2012 12:05 AM

Thanks Eli!! :biggrin: That's a great giveaway! I'll send you a PM.

Thanks again,
Lee
