The fact that it "splits" is a bit of red flag. It could mean that it is indeed a S. tapetum "mini carpet" but it could also mean S. helianthus which is an Atlantic species (and known to be an aggressive eater). I'm not sure how aggressive tapetum is supposed to be. S. gigantea and S. haddoni and S. mertensii are not known splitters (there are isolated stories of it happening, but generally as exception not the rule).


Just took one even though the lights are out. I am uploading it to photobucket now. I don't think I have Stichodactyla tapetum after looking at many pics on the web.
