Haddoni Carpet Anemone ($30)
I want this area back.. This bugger is in a section that I want to expand my ricordia collection in. When we first got him about 5 months ago, I originally placed it high on top of the rocks. it moved up and back down the rocks twice. I placed in the sand and it dug in and has not moved since then. It is approx 7" when at its widest. There is a porcelain/anemone crab living in it that has never left it. I bought the crab the same weekend and dropped him on the anemone and he never left it since then. I would like to try and keep the crab if it is going to be possible to separate him without hurting the anemone. I will probably have to distract him with food when he is barely hanging on and net him.
I paid $59 when it was smaller.. I would like $30 and can probably deliver to Mobile on the weekend when we run to town. Or will trade for something else reef-related. A hunk of live rock, test kits, etc...
Let me repeat.. I want to keep the Crab, unless someone wants to buy him w/ the anemone.. He's too cool to give away
This is not long after we got him
He gets flat a lot of times like this...
The most current Picture... I can't get a good angle on him to get a clear shot, they come out distored because of the glass.

I would honestly buy him but we are about 0 and 10 on Anemone. I said no more along time ago. Now if Amy pipes in and wants it her word is gold. I would be more inclined to buy yours though since it is Aquacultured in a sense.

Wanted to say THANKS Brandon, the anemone and crab are in and they look beautiful together... I'll get a better pic when he's more spread out. I've been wanting one of these anemones ever since I visited over at Terry and Cliff's.

Woohoo, he's already looking happy... his mouth is still "open/loose", but he's spreading out a lot now, and he's pushed his foot most of the way down through my 5" or so sandbed (!!) The anemone crab is SO entertaining to watch too, especially when he's filter feeding.
P.S. The pictures don't do justice... I didn't understand why Brandon couldn't get good pics , but now I see, it's hard to get hte right angle w/out the glass distorting it.
