Ocean Aquarium anemones
 
Anyone been to O A recently benny has a large (10 to 14") anemone possibly ritteri or clarks was woundering if anyone knew what species for sure

When I was there last week there was an 18" Stichodactyla gigantea carpet which may be what you saw. Be prepared for some sticker shock though, it's not cheap. They also had a couple juvenile carpets of the same species as well as Heteractis crispa.

Thanks for the reply

The anemone was given back to us from a long-time customer. it was purchased about 1 year ago when it was about fist size. We are not intended to sell that beauty and it is a store pet.

Frankly
 
Ha, ha, ha
Please be truthfulness, all are for sale - not any like to be a pet store, I personally was there and all was offer fore sale, ... and also you have very seek fish, witch must be put down to stoop suffering because those fish will never recover from that sickness. (Annularis Angelfish is very seek and other alsow)
This is
“humane” and my personal opinion!
If you would like to challenge me about this statement, I will be very happy to stand and prove what I wrote,
I will always stand fore responsible and common sense reefing to preserve this beauty for next generation in the
Ocean and small Mimic at home.


Sincerely,:redface:

Your post makes no sense and is painfull to decode.

My head hurts now. :(

I'll second that.


Its not that there are many typo's, but it just doesn't make sense.

Oceans Aquariums Fish looked good last time I was there about 2 weeks, and bought an anemone...

Everything looked pretty healthy... they had a few fish in their hospital tanks, but not many...

I don't remember seeing any dead fish... Wai's is the only privately owned store that I have ever seen a dead fish here or there, but those times were probably the day after he got in a shipment.

Please revise your post so we can better understand your standpoint.
Thanks


Edit: The only 2! private places i've seen dead fish are Wai's and Riverfront. Jezz, how could i forget riverfront... i can't remmeber a day where i didnt see half a dozen dead ones.

Huh... anyways, I was in OA in Calgary two weeks ago and asked about the big carpet anemone. Was told $250. Apparently it was for sale then. I bought the small perc that was calling it home and a Coral Beauty. Both are loving life and healthy.... minus the minor Ich inconvenience that I don't know for sure that I got there.

Every time I'm in Calgary I will be checking them out.

If I am not mistaken...Small world, I think my girlfriend and I were in there when you got those fish. I remember my girfriend noting that you had a cooler in your van and told me that we needed to carry a little cooler in the car when we go coral shopping so we don't have to go home everytime we get something before going to the next store. :D

Buy a cooler bag. They are more convenient because they're collapsible when not needed. I have 2 so I almost always have one in my vehicle. Works great & cooler bags will also cushion the new fishies on their ride home. Got mine from Canadian Tire last time. May be wrong time of year to get them right now though.
