Ringed tentacles on Malu shots please

[davocean]

I'm having a heck of a time finding a Malu locally, so a friend that does fish runs for our club is helping me out.
Only prob is he is not familiar w/ Malu's or IDing them
I'm hoping some of you guys have some shots showing maybe the rings on tents, or any good visual ID shots I could show him.
Thanks in advance.

Just give him a picture of JT's

 

[davocean]

LOL, you dork!
JT's pic isn't clear enough, and doesn't show rings at all.
I think peeps think there is some kind of rivalry between him and me since he got the swoop on that, and I do wish I got that, but good on him, and at least it went to a responsible reef keeper.

Shut up Trev.I thought we had gotten rid of you.......
Thanks Dave. I will try tonight to get a better pic. I do not see rings as of yet, as we discussed.

[davocean]

Hmm...I've been on the waiting list at aquasd like a month and a half now, wonder if that is actually the one JT scored a couple weeks ago?

 

[davocean]

Cool ID link, thanks again!

 

[jt_milstead]

No I dont think it is. He had one other one right before i got my picassos and malu.

You know, I was just talking to someone about those on RHS.
They just say sebae, and don't define what kind.
I sure don't want another humongous crispa!
I'm pretty sure they usually ID as crispa when they have them, I wonder if they are just nervous to mis ID?
I have a guy going to LA tomorrow that will look for me, but I'll keep these in mind, thanks!

That would be my guess.
