[ohio reefer]

After waiting months and seeing many I didn't like I finally found a carpet I like.

Pic in bag. I'll post a better picture when he's in my tank

how big is the bad boy

 

[ohio reefer]

About 4-5 inches. Wanted the smallest I could get.

I want one to but haven't seen one i like yet

I know they're supposed to be sticky but come on. Worse than duct tape

Here he is settled down. It's not showing but he's a bright green

 

[eliramos]

VERY NICE
how big is your tank?

 

[ohio reefer]

Only 55 gallons but a 240 upgrade is in the works

Would suggest wearing gloves next time you have to touch it.

Kept a very close eye on it --- it if doesn't attach right away and the flow pushes it towards the H. crispa there are gonig to be issues -- most likely for the H. crispa.

What's the reason for gloves? For its health or mine? And it's completely attached.

Because the sting can be quite painful.

Both. The tentacles can/will stick to you -- would rip them off the anemone. Some people have reactions to the sting -- one bad sting (( was trying to save a fish )) caused my hand to swell up for a bit --- hurt like heck too.

Very, very nice! I wish I could have one...just don't have the room.

That was my dilemma. I removed some rock and made higher structures. Made plenty of room this way.
