where to get a green gig?

Any color Gigantea IMO is beautiful, but I don't think you have a green Gig. At least not green like these:

yeah, OrionN, i know it's might not be the neon green one, but this is the first time i see my local pulls in a gig in over 2 years. lol, so i take what i can get, if i can get my hand on a neon green one i will move this guy into my anemone tank.

if just white light, all the blue tentacles are white and the yellowish tentacles are greenish.

thanks, now i have a reference to see how it should color up.
my local told me he got a new supplier might have more gig coming.
 
Yea. That will probably be close. I think OrionN's is pretty nice. I'd definitely be happy with that for a local find.

Gig update by Li Cai, on Flickr

sorry for the blue shot, my display tank run a very blue light.
i was picking up a tube anemone under the green gig. bad news, i was careless and my right forearm underside was blushed by it, now the area is red and swollen. good news i think he's healthy. lol

the blue gig is right next to it. my pair of clown only go into the blue, the male has tried the green a few times. now i know why he dont want to stay. lol
 
Looking good. Definitely much more healthy. Do you have a pic of the blue one? My blue is getting so big I might have to sell it soon. I never feed but it won’t stop growing.


I think I’m lucky with touching carpets. I dont seem to have much of a reaction. I even pulled one out of a powerhead a few months ago without gloves. Itchy for a few mins but not much else.
 
i will try to get a pic of the blue one tomorrow.
my blue stay the same size in my 185 for almost 3 years, now in my new tank. double in size but seem slow down. i only feed it when i do manual target feed which only once a blue moon.
