Gigantea Anemone (7") and 2 medium/large percula clownfish

[Smite]

Gigantea anemone- tan with pink hues under white light. Very healthy and well established. It was quarantined with cipro to eliminate bacteria infection when I first purchased it. About 7" and nice tentacle extension to it. 100% healthy. About 10 months in my care. Reason for selling- I went bare bottom and am terrified this guy will walk at some point. It's also starting to grow large for the space I can provide for it. I plan to change lighting soon and am worried the change will cause it to find a new happy spot. $200

I had good success getting it to stay put by surrounding it's foot with smaller rocks. Supplying high light and strong to moderate random flow.

I'm considering selling my 2 percula clownfish. They are bonded and display breeding behavior. I have yet to see any eggs. About 1.5 years old now. I bought them from a local breeder as C-Quest lineage but don't really have any proof to provide except his word. $250

They love that gigantea and their color is great. Very black where black. I'll do $325 for clowns and gigantea together.

Pickup is in 92845. It is connected to my bottom pane. I am confident I can remove it safely. There is no rock included.

A super nice combo, especially in person. Great reefer and seller, buy with confidence. GLWS!

Very nice. If only I have space for them.

that's a sweet deal someone is going to luck out

Would this be too big as the centerpiece of a 25g tank? I was going to get a Sherman but haven’t found one. I have a pair of clowns already so would only get the nem.

Exactly. Challenge 1: getting it established.
Challenge 2: Providing the space for it to grow fully

I felt like it, I'd prefer for them to go together since they love their host so much.

I would stick to the BTA for that tank size personally and a small pair of clowns. In my opinion the clowns are already too large for that tank size and the gigantea would probably take up most of that tank at this size. These can grow very large.

GLWS! What's your strategy going to be to detach the nem/foot?

Glove up and irritate it. Slowly work it off the glass. I've done it with BTAs several times. This one actually walked to the rockwork and I was able to remove it from a crevice working the edges of the foot. Took a solid hour but gripped fine soon after moving it to a new location.

Similar strategy I've used. Glove and massage that foot. My little RBTAs took about 15min of rub-a-dub-dub. I agree an hour is required for your behemoth 😅

Such a killer combo, GLWS! Wish I had the space too.

Tempted to put it in my 960 on its own rock where it can’t wander.

It's pending for now. I'll update if anything changes.

What lighting set up are you changing over to?

I'm going to go back to halide, I just love them. 36" ReefBrite hybrid with XHO and I'll be adding my quanta OG pops to the setup. When Hamilton gets their shipment of Cozumel sun pendants in July, I'll probably be switching over to them.

I plan to start at 250w and I'm not sure that will have the same output as this powermodule, it's a par monster. I just don't want it walking while I watch the sticks reaction.
