Any Success Stories with LA Gigs?

[blackgate]

Just like the title says, before I potentially throw away $200 are there any success stories out there!?!? BTW, I am completely prepared for the inevitable disaster, I was just wondering if any of their tan gigs had made it so far in the hands of the experts.

I was actually wondering the same thing I see that they have med and larges and would also like to know anyone's luck with them

Yep. See my thread here:

Still doing well.

Great thread thanks

Well that is encouraging! It's also one beautiful gig. I absolutely love those colors for a "tan" anemone

I'm really happy about how it turned out. It seems most of the "tan" gigs end up being either multi-colored or have some other color to them.

I received one awhile back. Came with a badly torn foot and was sick

It took about a month of daily Cipro treatment to get it to look like this:

All I can say is good luck to anyone getting one. You will have your work cut out for you !!

I've got one. 7 days of Cipro during acclimation and been doing fine ever since.

Thanks to everyone for posting their results, I know I have seen plenty of threads where their LA gigs did not make it (and gigs in general of course) so it's nice to see success!

Has anyone gotten one within the last year that's responded to Cipro and is doing well?

Before my unfortunate crash I had one brought back from being fully bleached doing well for 4 months, I just recently lost it battling it being sick from the crash sadly... lost my last gig now

That's exactly what I was thinking.

Mine. I forget when exactly, but search for threads created by me and you'll see the timeline.

I'll admit I have one small brown one from DFS, but I think it was almost a year ago. I'm not sure if it was before or after the widespread use of meds for nems. Still here today.

What type of crab is that with the Nem and I'm assuming it's reef safe?

Cool thanks, thinking of picking up a couple.
