My Petco Gigantea
I wish my petco sold such nice Gigantea. Good looking coral.

He did not come to my tank looking like that. It was a lot of hard work on my part to get him healthy. My Petco is not any better or worst than the average Petco.

I thought I would keep this thread alive. Its the same Gig in both pictures. It was bleached with a tint of yellow on the tips of the tentacle's about 4 months ago. I never put it through treatment and it has colored up to what you see now. I purchased this from a fellow reefer who's tank was too small. The smaller Gig you see on top in one of the pictures was a Petco Gig that also didn't go through treatment. Prior to this I have gone through multiple Gig's with no success even with treatment. All lasted about 2 weeks and died. I have a lot of hope for these two.

That 'tent length is still awe inspiring to me! I lost my purple about 4 years ago during a move in 105 degrees in a monsoon (super humid to boot), sad to think it may have been that gorgeous by now!

Not to be the tang police, but it appears you have a paired 6" female maroon and a yellow tang which looks almost as large in a 50gallon aquarium? How is that working out for you?Beautiful stuff guys. Nice Nem Orion.
MY 24"+ Gigantea. These are some older pics, but she's still going. I've had it for about 7 years now I think. That 10 year old female maroon is a good 6" long.

Thought I would jump start this thread by posting a pic of my new Gig nothing special but a nice size and healthy, wish i was in the US able to get them so cheap especially coloured ones. This photo was taken about 30 mins after being put into the tank.
