Anyone have experiencing haddoni with crispa?

[Winwood]

I currently have a large crispa however tonight I impulsively bought this haddoni off Liveaquaria.

I was wondering if anyone has kept these two species together?
Also, has anyone ordered a similar colored haddoni? The reason I ask is LA listed this anemone as green. It does not look green to me at all. I'm actually hoping it's not green but closer to the color in the picture.

...its a common bluegreenishgray color. I got this one at Petco for $20, grew from ~8" to ~20" in a year:

Hmmmm... Well my hopes are that it will show a lot of the blue/teal coloration portrayed in the photo. Either way I just hope it's healthy. Thanks for your input.

With a crispa in the tank, I'm hoping you are running carbon. I run massive amounts in my 70 gallon to keep a mag and haddoni and a couple btas in the same tank.

I do run carbon and change it weekly so I am hoping this will alleviate any alleopathy that may occur. I have had several mags before and never had luck keeping a haddoni in the same tank with them. I am curious, how long have you had your magnifica with your haddoni?

Its been in there for a couple weeks now. Hasn't moved once. It's only around 5" away from the haddoni where it is right now when it and the haddoni are fully inflated. Only thing I see that I don't like is that my percs lost pretty much all of their black.
This picture is from when the mag was first added to the tank. It now inflates at least twice that size.

Wow! Great looking specimens you have there. It seems when I tried this the haddonis never seemed "comfortable" and continued to move around the tank even started the inflating/deflating cycle a bit. After I moved the haddonis to seperate tanks this behavior ceased. I'm hoping I don't have the same experience with my crispa.

I have had the same trouble as Winwood when trying to keep Mags and any carpet anemone in my 180. I am currently trying a crispa in the tank with my two mags. It's only been in the tank a few weeks and the crispa has not deflated but is very bleached.

It is probably the amount of carbon I use. I use around 2.5 cups in my reactor, but I only change once a month. Also, the flow that was high meant for the mag may have disturbed your haddonis. My haddoni was unhappy until I adjusted my 6055s to hit the haddoni as little as possible.
