What type of carpet Nem is this?

[roooler]

My local LFS has this.. Said he has had it for around 6 months.

Is it super bleached? or no?

I was really wanting to add it to my tank, however he said he could not get it out (in a 300Gal) with Egg Crate below the sand which the Nems foot is anchored too.

Price is $40.00, He said if I was really persistent he would arrange the rocks so he could safely remove it.

Is it in good health or no?

Hard to see but in person it has a Teal-ish tint to it..

Hadonni (green) Other than being bleached it looks good. Haddoni are notorious for eating fish and even some clownfish. Good luck

eeeeeee.

I only have a 55Gal that already has a rather large RBTA.. I might just pass on him...

Dont feel like giving any of my fish multiple death traps to swim around lol..

Is he worth 40$ in his condition?

$40 is good considering they can cost $80+ at most LFS

Very bleached haddoni. It could be any colour as I dont see any green, but that may be down to my PC settings.

I see green in it, I would not call that animal healthy, nor would I pay $40 for it.

No one said it was healthy.... $40 is a great deal in my neck of the woods bleached or not.

I have a white one just like it in my 75 reef tank . Keeps moving around, wont settle. I also have a very large 1-1/2 foot green carpet that always stays put. Problem is I have had SEVERAL of my favorite fish (large butterfly, 2 blennies, sifting gobies, blue damsel)disapear in the 6 months these anenomes have been in my tank. So yeah, they eat very well. I want it gone, you have have both of mine for FREE! seriously free. Good luck.

I appreciate all the feedback guys.

Seems ill be passing on this nem for more then one reason.

It looks bleached, but otherwise healthy. I would be very concerned that the lfs owner might tear the foot if he tries to remove it. If I were you, I would suggest to the lfs shop owner to leave it alone and get some proper lighting for the anemone. It could make an impressive display with a pair of natural symbiotic clownfish residing in it.

I got something very similar free in a tank tear down. It was so bleached that I was afraid to put it in my tank, but it had a porcelin crab on it so I decided to risk it. Now that it has colored up a beautiful green, the combo are one of our favorite things to watch in our tank.
