After an uncountable times Lisa said this weekend, "That anemone is so big now," it was a little subdued today. As I walked by this evening I realized we wer getting another. Second time the E. Quad has split.
I caught it about just before it was complete. A thin strand of tentacles hung as I suppose both sides slowly moved away from each other. Confused the saddleback, but he's now since seemed to have picked one. Here's a pick with a flash just before it split.
BTW, we were sitting there watching and I had just fed the fish, other BTA and LPS some shrimp as the clown dropped a large piece into one of the splitting anemones which grabbed it quick and poof we had missed the actual split watching it feed.
One last btw. Studying close after the split, I watched a long bristle worm pick at the split wound. Would it bother it too much? Not that there was anything I could have done about it.
