That pic doesn't do it justice. $300 is a bargain for anemone. It's the nicest carpet I've seen.

I had seen that same carpet new in redcoral, then again in his tank.
That was more then 6 months ago, its definitly a good carpet and to be honest very very big and blue.

parkinsn 02-12-2010 03:07 AM

SOLD. I hope it does well for you Blaine. I will see you in a couple weeks to help you deal with it :lol:

Delphinus 02-12-2010 03:31 AM

Nice score Blaine! I was hoping it'd be a Canreefer although I dunno dude, you don't share anywhere near enough pictures, I do hope this one is one you will photograph from time to time!! :p (Please and thank you!!)

That's very nice of him! That sure is one heck of a show piece.

Delphinus 02-12-2010 07:03 AM

It is indeed. Very nice, thanks for the pictures and sorry to hear you're getting out. :neutral: .. come back soon!!

parkinsn 02-12-2010 02:55 PM

Yeah do something to it so it will split :-) Make sure it split into 3 so i can have one too

:-)

Delphinus 02-12-2010 08:11 PM

Ahhhh, unfortunately, gigantea's aren't into that sort of thing .. they spawn instead, apparently they are either male or female. So what you need to do is see if you can get it to spawn and then find one of the opposite gender and then raise 1000 little gigantea anemone larvae. :lol:

Since its yours now, lets do your idea and take the scalpel to it. Or tie some fishing line around it and see what happens. I could set up my 20g for it when its half the size.

Delphinus 02-12-2010 08:21 PM

That's certainly do-able. It's something I always kind of wanted to try .. but could never do it with mine because I like them too much to risk losing both halves afterwards! Plenty of people over at RC over the years have done it successfully with haddoni. There was a failed attempt with a mertensii although the loss of both halves may have been accidental and not due to the cutting itself .. to my knowledge it hasn't been attempted with gigantea but it is theoretically possible.

A $300 blue carpet though is a heck of specimen to try it on as a first attempt !!

And that right there is the reason I never attempted it. :lol:

Man that thing looks cozy. Be a nice place for a lazy fish to bunk if it wasn't also a killing machine.

BC564 02-14-2010 11:03 PM

BC564 02-16-2010 02:35 PM

No...if he bites me....the harpoon gun will come out. And you must of warned Carrie.....She bought this little devil... I would have never put that gang member in my comfy peace loving citizen tank.
