Amazing Gig

This new gig continues to impress me. Had just my blue plus bulbs on this morning and it really showed off it’s orange/red tentacles.

It is very nice. I wish posting a video was more simple in the forums. Looks really cool moving around in the flow

Wish I could get one, they snatch your fish though. :mad:

Really like this pic of my Spotcinctus male and my baby Allardi clowns hovering over the gig

That is what I call a multicolor Gigantea. Nice

I think I found my holy grail Gigantea. Never did I ever expect a $100 green gig to turn into this. Every day it looks better and better and with 4 clowns feeding it daily it’s growing fast.

First pic under all T5 bulbs second pic just blue+ bulbs

That is a very gorgeous gig. If you don't mind me asking where did you get it from?

Beautiful!! Can you post a full tank shot?

MikeyA · Oct 18, 2020

That is truly a stunning creature. What is your setup, tank size and lighting?

Tank is a 150 mixed reef, mostly SPS. Lighting is an 8x80w ATI Sunpower w/ ReefBrite XHO strips. Flow 2x MP40's on 100% pulse so the Gig gets nice bursts of flow.

I'll try to get an FTS of the tank

I love these multicolor gigs. I also love the fact that most of these are sold as tan or green gigs, and once acclimated they become almost iridescent.

This one was just a normal tan/green when I first got it. I would like to get some more light on it to see if I can pull some more color out.

FTS right about the time I added the gig it’s still in the same spot under the red monti cap to the left
