From what I hear the smaller the better -- supposedly they fare better in transit, and acclimate a lot easier and faster than the larger ones. I tend to believe this since they are basically just bags of water. It's got nice color too -- the brown tells me that it didn't expel its zooxanthellae. Nice pick up! Keep us posted.
 
Looking good IMO! :thumbsup: Not much to reference size... What are we talking??? Golf Ball???
 
The smallest I have seen was about twice that size, maybe tennis ball... ;) Hope it does well for you!
 
Keep an eye on it. IME the really small ones are very fragile since they don't have much reserve energy to draw from while they acclimate. They also tend to move around and get behind rocks and you can't find them because they are so small, especially if they deflate a little.
