i just bought a divers den anemone

at least its not bleached i just wonder if that nem really looked like the picture from live aquaria
 
boy, its doubled in since that last pic was taken. Im going to acclimate about a half hour more, i hope it doesent move immediately. hopefully it'll chill and inflate first :)
 
Ok. its in the tank. Boy, Ive had this peppermint shrimp a long time, and just lately its been picking at the mouths of my corals and digging big holes in them.

as SOON as i got the nem in there the shrimp was picking. I freaked out and almost flushed the monster (been really giving me a hard time) then i remembered.. I have a sump now!!! whoohoo I just band my first critter to the sump lol

oh good news (for me anyway) my maroons have NOT noticed it. its on the complete opisite side. I moved all my corals to the other side to so they cant be stung (hopefully)

1/2 my rock is in my new tank so i was really lacking in spots

As for colors, its not to far off! It still has about double its size to inflate if it was really 4 inches like LA said. Its about two inches right now. Ill upload a pic... *uploading*

pretty :D



alright, ive slacked on every area of my life today, time for a shower lol


edit- that middle pick is with a flash, the other two are just under the 250watt 14K hamilton
 
It looks much better now, whew! :) Glad to know it's perking up. It really is a nice color, with the green/yellow tips. :)

yeah, i think it'll be just fine too! it has shifted a bit, so its either going to hide or just getting off that pebble and on to more solid ground.

It almost more orangish than red. really odd and pretty for sure.

thanks for tagging along with me on the thread, im definately pleased with how it all ended up :)
 
oh im a picture taking fool. u can count on it! still amazed my maroons arent bothering it. she came over and bit me when i was placing it like usual, but dident see it. she found the one shes frolicing in now before it was out of the bag. lol guess shes just to obsessed with the one shes got

You do have any pump/powerhead intakes covered as well as overflows, right? I know you probably do, just a moment of panic there on your behalf. :)

lol i have 2 of them covered and two tunzes that arent. theyre on the front two corners of the tank. unless it floats it isent getting to them easily. its been in the same spot forever now. half on one side of a rock, half on the other. i keep waiting for it yo pop thru, but man is it a slow one. my gbta practically jogs lol
 
I got the e mail to. its worth it guys. i was just about to post the the nem has firmly rooted its foot. its faceing front and center and looks beautiful, fully inflated and completely healthy. best purchase ive made... besides my gbta of course ;)
 
well its nighttime in the tank, i went to feed my candycanes some mysis and i gave one to the nem. it gobbled it up REALLY fast. heres a pic of it, lights been off 2 hours :)
