Hi guys and gals.
I can't make it to the meeting today. Have fun. I want to post the picture of my H. magnifica. First picture is a partial bleached due to low light at the LFS. The second on is the picture of a anemone that is totally recovered and double in size after 40 days. Let me caution people from going out to buy a H. magnifica, that these anemone get huge (2-3 feet) require high light like right under my 400 W MH, and require very clean water and very good current.

BTW, my snails is finally winning the algae war. I did not want to put too many of them in there.

Here are the pictures:

looks like it went from a white to a blueish green or is that just the lights?

Looks great Minh! I think Aquatek in Austin has one in a display tank in the corner and it is awesome how big it is. Those clownfish have plenty of room to hide!

Dan,
The color is very accurate, at least on my monitor. The tentacles have a yellowish green cast to it. Under my 20,000K, it sometime looks redish-purple

Chris,
Full expansion, the anemone is 12 inches right now. When I got it, full expand is about 6-7 inches.

Thanks everybody.
Minh
