1 mag 1 haddoni = what's next?

[Swayze27]

I have 1 haddoni bottom left of tank and 1 mag top right in my 180 DT. Can a second mag be added or should I count my blessings?

I'd stop while you can or maybe add a less aggressive nem to your tank like a RBA.

Are you saying that haddoni and magnifica are aggressive anemones, not towards fish but to one another? I'm always interested to hear stories of allelopathy.

My magnifica would barely fit in your 180 without touching the front and back. With the haddoni on the other side, you really don't have room.

Ok brad, I need picks brother. I want my mag to host my 180, lol

I too would like to see this.

I tried to get pictures showing the scale of this thing, but it is hard. Any picture without reference just looks like another anemone. The scraper in the picture is 15 inches, and even with the right side of the mag. You can see another 2-3 inches on the left. You can also see where the coral has died back, which is about how big this can swell up to.

BTW - this was a much better looking purple color. Anyone know if I can get that back by either increasing light or feeding or anything else?

 

[taylor t]

That's just awesome. It looks to still have some really nice color to it. Maybe more intense light would bring out more color? Looks good to me how it is.

Awesome, I'm feeding mine a steak and potato tonight, lol. How often and what do you feed?
