I contacted Cultivated Reef to see if they had any "XL" bubble tips, to be a in my 300 gallon. They didnt have them listed, but I figured it was worth a shot. Holly sent me photos of her beauties with an excellent price, and did not disappoint!
Instead of the single XL nem, a few weeks later I ended up with one big, one medium, and one small. Thats on me for being unable to make it happy those first couple days- big nems are prone to splitting due to stress!
But since then it has split again, with each split being prettier than the last! So overall, 3 for 1?!?
The (current) mama after having 2 splits- not bubbled up in this photo but usually is.
Notice the speckling and the green!!!
Split #1, caused by it getting up to my overflow box. Initially this was a tiny little thing of red goo, hanging over the overflow. I put it into a hole.... and:
BOOM! Look at that green!
Then, it finally started holding. But a bit of it wanted to go another direction....
Boom! The specking seen in the 'momma came across even better.
Overall- 10/10 communication and quality.
0/10 on proper anemone discipline.. It did NOT want to stay put
. @Cultivated Reef has to get out those brass knuckles!
