Default Ritteri (H magnifica) anemone

Ok, I think the time has come I have to let this guy go too.

Has to go into a suitably large tank. This think is easily 20" across nominally, can get as large as 24" if you feed it lots (I feed it lightly but regularly which seems to work out).

History has shown that removing this anemone from its rock is a bad idea, so he comes with his own rock. Approximately 12"x18"x3" shelf. In the interest of full disclosure and with full apologies - this rock has about 20 majano anemones that will need to be dealt with. I'm sorry for that.

History has also shown that I have a bad habit of second-guessing myself when it comes to selling this. So here's the deal that's on the table to try to make a quick sale (not trying to pressure anyone, but trying to make sure it goes before I have the whole "Aw, but I can't sell this thing, I've had it for too long!" change of heart).

[...]

Amazing looking anemone! What type of light did you have it under?

I know - it's weird to come to this after 7 years with it but a couple things came to a head and I think it's time to simplify for the sake of my sanity. (It may already be too late for my sanity). Not quite throwing in the towel yet - but definitely have to scale back.

FWIW, I had this guy under a 250W DE - Ushio 10k.

That has to be the most amazing anemone I have seen in person. The new owner is a very lucky man or woman!
