show me your beautiful anemones

[JonCollegeReefer]

Does your nem have yellow tips? I'm pretty sure I've got the same one and the vendor told me the tips get yellow when it colors up but mine looks like the right portion of your pic. Any tips would be appreciated =]

Macrodactyla? I'm never sure about my LFS id's lol

Yes. That is a M. doreensis, or LTA.

I've had a number of anemone's over the years, but this is my present tank w/ my magnifica, which has become my personal favorite anemone to keep in a mixed reef.

And this is one of my favorites well, from years ago, my first real success w/ keeping anemones long term as well as bringing back to health.
Started w/ this bleached out petco rescue of H.Crispa.
I had this crispa and the LTA for 5.5 years.
My crispa went from this;


To this.

When you say Donis Reef do you mean the lady from Hillsborough NC ?

 

[davocean]

And my donis in a Malu, one of my other favorites for a mixed reef, as they stay low at sand bed and relatively small for a host anemone, bright natural colors, easy to keep and control in a mixed reef.

Yes, she hand picked a nice pair for me in trade for a skimmer many years ago, had these guys from as small as they come, they were my sweetest clown pair ever, I swear they treated my hand like a host anemone!
I lost them in a move after 5.5 years, most heart broken I've ever been over a fish loss...

She lived and opperated her business about 20 minutes from my home. My haddoni carpet is hers from her personal tank. When she was thnking of closing down, she asked me if I wanted it, she knew I would take great care of it, as she had had it for about 15 years, & I've had it for about ten years now. I used to visit her every couple of months just to see her operation and all the new babies. She ran a great facility. I've wondered lately what she is up to. I'd like to send her a pic if I knew how to get a hold of her.

Lucky you, wish I had seen her setup in person.
She's on my FB page, and she loves to hear about her clowns and livestock from people, I'm sure she would be happy to hear from you.
Very cool lady, you should send her a friend request and note.

My old sunburst!

 

[nanoreeferpdx]

It decided to move and got shredded! Its replacement will be here next week!

I’ve had these 2 jokers for about 7 years now. The Orange ocellaris took a beating from the Black when I paired them. Face was pretty messed up, but they must have forgotten about that huh? We get eggs about every month now.

 

[Lonely reefer's]

I'm guessing you just got it last few weeks?
