Finally got my Blue Carpet after 2 years of looking! Made a trip to the city for a computer and came home with a carpet.

My blue, that had a powder/brighter color as posted above, has slowly darkened, and now has a geen to keep it company.

Look much better, Totlxtc, a beautiful royal blue. Mine went through that color for about two weeks, then continued to darken on up.
Great picture, trueblackpercula! Just how big IS that gigantea? |

Yeah, ae ,thanks for correcting me, BonsaiNut. I had a feeling this latin name had something to do with being "sticky". I took Spanish- no Latin. I wonder if I'd been pronouncing it right: stik-o-dak'-ta-la. Am I wrong?

Yes, can't argue language with a guy that mastered Latin and has a quote from an Oxford language professor in his signature.

BTW, mispronunciation is pretty broadly accepted on some words. For example, the pronunciation of "Gigantea" should NOT be "gee-GANT-ee-ah" but rather "ghee-ghan-TAY-a" (there is no soft "g" in Latin). But no one pronounces it that way. I leave you now to go check out my lat-ez-o-NAH-tee.

Whew... good thing I can avoid pronunciations and just stick to spellings! Thanks for the crash course.

Loserland vtsureshot- Nice Stichodactylae. This brings up a good question. I know that certain foods can 'color up' my fish with their color enhancing ingredients. Why wouldn't these foods have an effect on anemone coloration? I've noticed that my Haddon's anemone will shape itself similar to a baseball glove to catch drifting plankton-like foods when I simulate a bloom. {I feed my anemones small VibraGro pellets, frozen mysid, frozen HUFA enriched brine and Cyclop-eeze, in addition to larger meatier foods.}

I just soke all food in Reef Solutions first and then dump it in the tank. I also add 3 ML of Reef Solutions to the tank daily. Since I started doing that everythings' color had gotten much better!

Here is mine, it's been in the tank for a couple of days now. My Ocelleris still prefer my torch coral.

Very tempting and beautifull. However, carpet are hard to keep and demand good water quality and strong lighting. beginners please refraint from running out and get one for yourself as you will more than likely to waste your money and a beautifull animal.
Dont do it the hard way. |

All anemones presently in my reef aquarium originated as hitch-hikers or from trades with other RC'ers. Here's my latest acquisition. A 4" diameter variegated Haddon's anemone.
