What Color is Your Carpet? {pics please}

Tell me if this looks natural for a Blue Haddoni to look like this. BTW, its in my 55 gallon with Tek T5s with individual reflectors which is plenty of light. Sorry for bad pics:

Wow that pink carpet that lives in Kansas is stunning. Make sure you give him lots of water flow!

Since this is a thread on carpets, besides gary, has anyone ever heard of asex reproduction in carpets?

My new red carpet...picture isn't the best but WOW is it nice! Picked it up for $40.00 CDN, but it is just the size of a large grapefruit

Mine does that 55semireef.. Between feedings he gets looking real crappy. I am finding I have to feed him alot more often than when I first got him. Now I feed him a couple times a week usually 3 1" krill. He has totally shrunk up a few times. I'm only running PC's I assume that's why. I'm borderline on light. I have some MH on the way though

Wow thats an awsome price. When its a size of a basketball, it will probably be worth $300.

Anyone have any problem with their carpets moving around and killing coral?

My blue and green had anchored themselves in one spot for about a year. All was well. Then they started moving in about a 12 inch radius, killing all the SPS they come near, including my blue tort that had grown fairly large. I did manage to frag of three of the larger branches so the tort is still living in three higher smaller spots in the tank, but not as one big pretty colony.

Still, wouldn't want to get rid of my carpets though.

I'll try to get some pics up as soon as I shoot some. These are some tough carpets, as they are living in a nitrate level of 100! (See my other post

Not all reds have the same intensity as others do. Just like you see some Blues that are different. Some are a lighter blue and others are a dark deeper blue. It all depends.

This is my first try at taking pictures,hope it works. This is our week old Blue carpet, just a little guy.

Here is mine which I has for a few months. It was so green I cannot refuse. We don't get very good anemones here in Corpus Christi so I have to make do with him

 

[Gary Majchrzak]

That is one sweet green!

 

[55semireef]

Orion what lighting do you have? Looks great.

 

[OrionN]

Thanks Gary.
55semireef,
The anemone is in a 24 g Aquapod with 150 W Aquasun MH. I am getting a larger tank setting up but things seem to be going slow. I hope to set it up in a few weeks. I will likely leave the Carpet in this tank unless it start to outgrow it.
