Whatcha think of this one Kevin?

Looks purty to me. I'd pick up one like that, if the price was right (and I didn't already have a couple dozen).

Here is a pic of mine. This should be my 100th post so hopefully I can make this my avatar.

That rose is beautiful, are there white patches of coloration in it?

Here's mine

Great pics guys! My single RBTA that I brought home from my store is now 4 rather large anemones. It is a great addition to the tank, but I would be wary of paying more than $70.
zaraemna..I love your pics...great bubbles.

The huge one in my pic earlier on this thread split into three about a month ago. I know this isn't a selling forum but i'm just replying to the last post.. one of them is about 7"-8" when fully open I would be willing to sell you. Def wouldn't find one like this at a store. PM me if you're interested, I can give you a picture or two.

You're store sells 16" true red roses? thats impressive

 

[nnahler]

I am not saying its a common every day item we have, but that is how I got mine for my tank (now 4)....its hard to get that type of thing through a distributor however..mainly through our network of reefers do those things come !!

 

[nnahler]

and your post said 7"-8"....that is more common..but the big boys do come around here and there....you just gotta keep the employees from snatchin them up!

Yep, mine have a few white specs in the tentacles and white markings around the base of the tentacles. There are the normal white lines around the mouth too. Here is a picture of two clones of the other one that are right next to each other.

I'll tell you for a million dollars:eek2:

 

[lobsterotomy]

I think OrionN nailed it on the head when he said that if it's healthy, and it looks like it's worth $150 to you, then go for it.

I feel left out, so I'll post a pic of my "non-true" RBTA. It's one of the "cheap" ones with a green tint to the base of the tentacles, but I like it And that's all that counts.

Actinics only:

wow, sounds like a great store! haha. Most of the stores near me sell 3" rbta's for about $90. However I picked up my gargantuan beauty from a local reefer club member
