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.

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.

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,

to Answer your query:

1. i am not and will not challenge any of your opinions. i am glad that hobbists in calgary stand up for their opinion. freedom of speech.

2. As my Post have wrote, it is not INTENDED to be on sale. and it is only offered to individuals with the right tank and resources to keep it healthy. as my mission statement in the HELLO column, we try our best to ensure quality, this is one way to achieve that. By screening the interested individuals, i have, at least, done my due diligence.

3. thank you for your concern first of all, The Bluering Angel in our fish-only tank have a serious outbreak of Lymphocystis. and from what we known it is not treatable. The viragen will be cured given time, and it is important to monitor the condition, such as appetite, behaviour etc. FYI, it is eating well and swimming well today.

thank you very much for all your patronage and see you all!
