It looks real good to me!!!!!!!! One of the key factors I look for in judging the health of magnifica, is its ability to hold itself up off the rocks, like yours is doing. Congrats!!!!!!!!
 
Ok just waned to share one more picture you can clearly see the foot is firmly attacht to the rock and i have a power head behind the nem blowing up . He it is getting really nice flow.

Please Help is this Normal yesterday morning it look the same way . I just want to make sure it just waste and not zooxanthellae ? Then it Inflates and looks great .

It looks like zooxanthellae, which is a normal part of the adjustment process. It takes weeks, if not months, for an anemone to completely acclimate to your system.
 
Well I have since placed the Ritteri on a Bigger rock Closer to the light and boy has it expanded I'm thinking it stretches out to about 12" or more I really love the look up the Nem . Here is a Picture and a Video please tell me what you think

It looks healthy, but perhaps a little bleached? Maybe it's the lighting, but it looks sort of pale/translucent in the pics. What type of lighting you're using (kelvin)?

This Nem Is not bleach at all it must be the lighting or the angle it is a stupid Iphone picture . as for the Kelvin i am not sure i have a 4x54wat T5
 
Good to hear it's not bleached at all. I'm sure it's the pic. It's very difficult to get the exact look in photos, in my experience. I wish you continued good luck with your anemone.

Thank you so much . So I'm thinking about getting the Apollo led and having them Custom fit it to my tank do you think this will be enough light for the Nem . I am going to have them make a 60" unit not too sure what the total watts would be but for the 42" they claim it put out 648wats what do you guys think
 
I don't have leds, so I can't comment. It might be a good idea to start a new thread specifically to inquire about leds and magnificas. I'm sure someone has a mag under leds, I just can't recall anyone who has posted on here.
 
im sorry lol was that an S. Gig in the center of your tank of the video i couldnt tell..

anddddd i just caught you red handed watching cartoons :P it was on the reflection of the tank!!!

the mag looks really good though :D

I've currently got a small Mag under a Radion LED. Running it 30% natural mode (12 hour cycle that mimics a day) as the light is new and everything is acclimating. I have to say the nem seems to love this light, opening the most I've seen in the month since I got it. The way my mag spreads out I'm guessing he is looking forward to me turning the LEDs up.
