Huge nem I saw at the zoo today

[Crawdawg]

There were probably 8-10 percs living in these. The percs had interesting color too.

I'm not a nem keeper, just thought someone might like these pics.

The anemones are BTA. The clowns look like occelaris to me.

Im just going by the label, the zoo sign says percs. They looked "dusty" orange.

The nem label said heteractis. I'm no expert FWIW. Just thouth the tank was cool.

NP. Toledo Zoo. Pretty nice aquarium.

For sure rbta and I'm voting occelaris (false percula) not true percula.

Beautiful specie tank! How big is that tank? Trying to size the nems and clowns...

Those look like perc's to me. The zoo is wrong about the anemone though. That's not a Heteractis species. It's E. quadricolor.

i vote perc judging by the eye on the 1 in the last pic.

those are Mansions for Clownfish

i'm just guessing but I'd estimate that display to be 30 or so inches wide, 20 deep and about 24 tall.

For sure rbta and I'm voting occelaris (false percula) not true percula.

Are there different types of RBTA? I have a smaller RBTA and the tenacles look totally different. They are shorter and are bulbus at the tip, which is what I always thought the RBTA looked like.

Thanks

No one knows what caused the tentacles to be elongated or bubbly.

Def percs...look at the ones eye..it has a definite black spot. occ's have muddy eyes..not as defined of a circle.

Could be a toss up between either long tentacle or bubble tip..im leaning bubbletip cuz the others look like clones and I dont belive LTA's split. could be wrong

 

[hypnoj]

I agree.. Percs and definitely BTA's
