Tiny Haddoni

One thing that separates these from maxi minis is that they are NOT as robust as maxi minis. Their care is closer to that of a haddoni...very sensitive.
 
Looks like DD got some as well:

They are calling it a "Vietnamese red mini carpet anemone" but the scientific name they are using is Stichodactyla tapetum.
 
The pic and title are right, but the description makes no mention of a green mouth or red foot and underside. The description is spot on for a typical maxi mini, but does not match the strange new nems.

They sold one of the green mouthed ones about 3 weeks back, described it properly then, but the origin they listed was Bali.
 
Agreed. What caught my attention was the title "Mini Carpet Anemone Ultra Red/Green" but I don't see any green in the photo. In the upper left corner, I see what appears to be the pointed tentacles, typical of S. tapetum.
 
here is a pic. i dont have a good camera so this is the best i can do. i fed it right after taking this pic to see if i could get it to fold up to get a pic of the underside since im sure some will doubt what it is, but the nem just takes the food right in without much folding or effort. I feed it everyday and its actualy grown some, almost double id say. I have a pic of my clown laying in it, and the clown dwarfed it. its doing great and hasnt moved since i put it in. and i found the clown a new home since she found the nem. i dint want it to bother it esp. since its soooo small. although she didnt do like other clowns ive seen where they just love it too much. it was like she was just laying still on a matress. i hope this baby growns into a nice healthy monster.
