Rainbow carpet anemone

Would love to see what this looks like under standard white lights.

Unrelated, but are you guys running your tanks this blue? I feel I have been seeing more and more pictures that are completely saturated in blue.

The most recent photos I took were with an iPhone Xs under what is basically a white LED.

I think a lot more people are running their tanks with lots of blue, but I also think more people are taking photos with their cell phones which are terrible when blue light is present. It makes it look more blue than it really is.

Whatever happened with this nem? Did a member here buy it?

Did not make it out of the store

Unfortunately, as OrionN mentioned, it didn't make it through the QT process. I applaud my LFS for not selling someone a sick anemone. They could've easily sold it as there were many people interested.

Humming amazing grace to myself. Twas a beaut, but a lot of respect to the LFS for not pushing out a sick anemone.

It's at Aquatic Collection in Hayward, CA. At this point, it's safe to say that they're one of the premiere anemone dealers in the country. I get all of my anemones from them.

I'm heading over tomorrow to take a look and hopefully snap more photos. It's currently in treatment, and if it makes it, it's sold. The price was undisclosed.

Dude so cool. I live in SJ and go to aquatic collection often. I've gotten my two carpets from Neptune though

I get all of my carpets from AC. My friend just picked up a gigantea from Robert a couple of weeks ago.

When I was stationed in petaluma from 14-18 we would travel all the way down there to visit there store. Great LFS with awesome fish and frags. Never got a nem from them though. They used to have auctions on eBay that was awesome! With local shipping it was dirt cheap and I scored great pieces from them... then they stopped their ebay auctions one day.

But anyways, I usually traveled to all about fish in pleasant hill to get my nems. They seemed to have mags in stock regularly.
