What's funny is I could find one at Petco for 100$. Probably any color. It's just one of those things. Certain vendors think they have gold in their corals. And some are actually reasonable. I'm going to take my time. I have about 6 months before I purchase most likely.
 
Ive not seen colorful Carpet Nems at Petco before. Normally they just carry the run of the mill LTA, BTA and occasionally the Condy.
 
the fact that its out of stock lol wonder who bought it
 
Her's one that looks great in person and in my tank. A maxi-mini Carpet Nem.

calling it a Nuclear Grenoble Carpet ( now the purple isn't that noticeable) I have 2 of them. both 1.5" across. Harmless unless you are a copapod.
 
So you've seen them?
These actual anemones in person, no. But I have green gigs, and know what they look like when color manipulated. Look closer at the colorful haddoni. Look at the yellow on the rocks and the column. I've seen plenty of photo shopped pics, that's definitely one, very obvious. Colors are saturated, look at the surroundings. The green gig, ok, I'll give ya that one as for not being photo shopped, but I know what shades the green gigs turn, and that yellow is manipulated with the lights. I have 2 of them, and can produce the same yellow pics without photo shopping, even though they are green, but lime green-not yellow.
 
Petco here in NY has them cheap but not colorful. Like the Tan color ones. I considered getting it and placing it next to my green one but changed my mind.
I got my green one from a LFS, Pop Corals in Brooklyn, NY. Great price too considering mine is about 12 inches
 
I purchased two mini max nem this week. Getting them shipped next week. Paid 40$ a piece for them. One is red and the other bubble gum. Going to leave them in my 15g. May propagate them when I set up my new tank.
