Nice. Are they fast growers?

This is it when i first got it in December 2022 so i would say kinda slow grower.

I’ve heard that gigantea anemones can be boring over time. Let me know when boredom strikes you and I’ll find that big fella (and his buddy) a good home?

I got this piece as a dime size frag and now a year later, it's growing in nicely.

You are a brave soul — I got some monticaps in the 150gal that I could not kill. Like aiptasias, kenya trees, GSP, and xenias, they are very invasive; however, they do look cool. I like mixing / grafting them together though. I got some red + Beach Bum monticaps currently. However, I lost some purple ones (very cool) since the red ones grew much faster and killed everything in between! lol

@bakbay Dan and I were just talking about that yesterday..that it's easy to think its a monti cap..but in reality it's a soft plating sponge which is why I love it so much.

In my never ending quest to keep as many blue corals/inverts available in the hobby, I came across this piece over the weekend. I have never been able to keep a Blueberry gorg aka Blue sea fan for longer than a few weeks but I'm hopeful that I'll be able to keep this beauty alive now that I have been able to keep other corals/inverts with similar high maintenance care requirements....once again huge shout out and thanks to @dansyr for providing these magnificent animals' live source (live phyto) .... am hoping that daily combo feedings of live phyto and reef roids will be the magic bullet to successfully keeping this coral long term.

Looks awesome. Fingers crossed they stay happy, just let me know when you run low.

You are truly the caretaker in chief!

I suspect that he’s a thrill seeker, disguised as a reefer.

Since everything is doing good in this filterless nano, I thought why not throw in a couple mini aussie scolys. Yes I know, I have issues.

Love it — looking great!
Just so you know — there are hotlines for people with MTS and coral addictions.

You can call me anytime and I help find a home for these innocent and helpless animals.
