Red carpet on the way....maybe?

Shiny!
I've placed an order for this red hadonni, but with the stipulation that I speak with someone at the store before its shipped to verify its condition. It looks as if the mouth may be gaping, but hard to tell in this pic. I'll ask all the typical questions about its condition before I allow them to ship it. Hopefully they won't mind all the questions.
What do you guys think? Not bad for $200 with free shipping! Sometimes staying up late and catching the new posts pays off! But I don't want to get too excited, cause I'll probably jinx myself with this.

looks nice... I like how it has a neon orange glow to it. Is that from your friend at atlantis also? I hope its healthy and you can keep it for years to come! Nice find
 
Hi Bones and 'Thanks'.
No, this one is not from Atlantis. I found it on CoralReefFarm.com this morning.
I sure hope its a healthy one. I'll post once I find out more info.

Congratulations ! I really hope it's the same colour as the picture. Do you have your clowns for it yet ?

Thank you! I like the coloration demonstrated in the pic too, fairly bright orangish/redish, not a dark red like some I've seen lately. Of course, it could look somewhat different under my lighting.
I'm not celebrating just yet as I haven't confirmed that I'm actually getting it yet. The order this morning was 'processed' but I have not yet received an order number or confirmation email.
There's a chance it had already been ordered and not taken of the site. We'll see. Cross your fingers for me. I need some good luck lately. :D
Oh, I have a 3 year old pair of jet black misbar ocellaris that I think I'll try to host with this hadonni.
 
I am so jacked! :celeb2:
I just confirmed that the anemone is mine! He is showing all signs of a healthy hadonni; sticky, closed mouth, full body, well attached to sand bed, and eating silversides!!! Estimated size to be 10" to 12".
They will hold him until Monday and call with a follow up before shipping for Tuesday arrival!
Woohoo! :dance:

Hi Gabriel. I found this beauty last night around 1 AM. They had just put it up on the site. After confirming its health this morning, I couldn't pass it up. Of course, I'll need to build something now to pay for it :)
I'd still like for you to keep your eyes out for a nice royal blue one though ;) You've got the connections.
Thanks

Thanks! Fingers crossed on a safe delivery. I'll post some new set up picks once the system is running. I'll be putting this guy in my 240 until its own tank is ready.

Nice carpet man. Good score! I will have to stay up later from now on to catch these good deals. =)

:lol: There are times when insomnia has its advantages!:lol:
When I finally did get to the point I had to sleep, around 4AM, I couldn't because I was too obsessed about this carpet and hoping that I had actually got it. :rolleyes:
 
Nice score. Hopefully you're not pairing her with any polymnus.

isseym328, how's that flame doing? When you're ready to sell that boy lmk. ;)
 
Nice anemone. Much better choice than a ritteri (IMO).
If you ever see another like it..... :D

Please post more pics of it once you receive it.
 
I missed the cost the first time I read this thread. Personally I think the price for such a beast is "who cares!" :) Dang, for $200, I think that's a steal. Awesome score! Best of luck and add me too to the list of "waiting to see more pics when it comes." :)
 
Did you decide not to get the red carpet? I just visited the web site and it is still listed for sale. Does look like a beauty!
 
Here are some new pics. I am a little concerned that the mouth may be gaping? What do you guys think. These were taken today. Guys at Coralreeffarm are great by the way!
The anemone was $199.99 and it is marked 'sold'. Its definately mine as long as it continues to look healthy by Monday.
Please let me know what you guys think of the mouth.
