Blue carpets new thread

[bluerug]

It is coming up to two months having my bluecarpet and would like to update him with all of you guys and report he is doing fantastic. I have just taken some pics of him with the lights off and when the lights were just turned on, i cant wait to catch a pic of him with the little guys rollin around in him but everytime i go near the tank they think its feeding time. The first three pics are when the lights were off and the rest are when they were just turned on, i will post some pics when he is all spread out in about an hour or two. Enjoy! Also as you can see he has found a new home on the bottom, i think he likes the sand a lot better than i would have thought. The little white spots on the anemone are little pices of sand.
I have already posted this but have made the pictures smaller.

just to ask where did you get yours? online, LFS? I just ask because when i had mine i was alittle spoiled in working for a LFS and got to hand pick mine from the wholesaler from about 25 different ones. I like to see that he is doing well mine lived happily till a friend convinced me to sell it to him and it died two months later after living happily in my tank for about a year and a half, should never had sold it.

Yeah, Bluecarpets are really common in the wholse sale markets nowdays.

So Bluecarpet, are you ever going to upgrade to a bigger tank?

Actually after the tsunamis that hit, the blue carpets (the true blue carpets not dyed) have become rare to get in. But to answer guys question i got mine from www.aqua-holics.com from there store, they only get about 2 in a year so i was really lucky to get mine.

All comments are welcome.

 

[55semireef]

Yeah Bluecarpets are nice. I would like to have one one day.

 

[skeeter-doc]

hey Blue, what size tank and what kind of lighitng do you have over that carpet?

 

[55semireef]

if you look on his tank info he has a 12 gallon dlx nano. If you know your nanos like I do he has 40 watts of pc over it.

 

[bluerug]

Dude its 48 watts,lol.

 

[55semireef]

thats right

 

[highquality]

What are your feedind habits with it and what kind of food?

I think this tank is too small and the light is too weak for S. haddoni. IMO, this anemone will not live long in this system. I may be wrong but I doubt it.
