Green Gigantea Anemone

[bigred16]

Here are a few pic's of my green gigantea anemone, it is a big one, it is at least 12-13" across when folded. It has eaten from day one, chuncks of shrimp. Sorry for the pic's take with camera phone.

God that thing looks massive and to think they only get bigger! Nice find but don't forget the EXACT conditions they need in order to live in a confined environment.

It is doing well so far, mouth is closed. eats a good chunk of shrimp a couple times a week and just replaced my 250w bulb.
Will get a few more pics in the next day or so.
The tank is actually a 46g bow front, if eveything goes well, I am willing to give the whole tank to him or move to larger tank.
