    Store looks great, new tanks are very cool, very nice frags, and those anemones are awesome looking. I think they palette arrived as I was leaving, so I'll have to check back again!

    The purple Gigantea is ridiculous. I think it is the nicest I have seen in person. The tentacles appear to be pretty filled in and the mouth is tight. Wow!!! How much is that bad boy?

    Btw, I can't believe the blue gig is still there. It appears to be doing good too, especially since they are supposed to ship so poorly and rarely make it captivity due to stresses of shipping.

    Okay, so I jsut read a post on Reefcentral about these two anemones. That purple one is a Haddoni? I have never seen a Haddoni that color. I just assumed it had to be a Gig that was still acclimating...

    Have you been back in there lately? I still say that purple on is a gig...

    And there is another blue gig in there.

    Man, I really need to bite the bullet and buy one of these.

    [​IMG]  Well, I didn't want to argue with you, but as my wife will tell you, I never think I am wrong.[​IMG]
    There are purple haddonis out there, they just happen to be EXTREMELY rare.  And I have never seen one that color (not that I confess to have seen everything that has ever come out of the ocean).
    The good news is that now you have no excuse for not picking it up to go with your other one since you don't have to worry about chemical warfare.
