Hey, not sure if I'm allowed to post other threads here but I have this one anemone that was supposed to be unique but looks like a normal bta but has a metallic glitter green covering a dark red base. Can someone help me ID if there is a name for it?

I am trying to experiment on this anemone. I blasted it with two Kessil 360 at maximal setting about 2 inches above the water and the anemone is 4 inches below the water.
He seems to like it fine. Get much lighter as he get use to the light.
Will keep this thread update.

One of mine has walked to about such a spot.

Ill make some decent pic but here is a short video.

Still trying to figure out what this bta is, below is pictures of tentacles both with filter and filterless (with filter its more orange) and another one of its base which is metallic green glittering over dark red base, its way brighter than my other anemones

I changed something in my tank to force some behaviour which my F999+ Amphiprion seem to have lost due to to breeding. They are a bit wonky when it comes to natural behaviour.

It's not yet perfect because they are not really hosting it yet, but there is some prospecting.

Let's just hope one day they pack up and move to this new location.

I don’t think Ocellaris or Percula are naturally hosted by Haddoni carpets so your fish are actually acts unnaturally by going into these Haddoni anemones.
Nice anemones and fish.

They are not in it yet.

They are used to it and swim IN it. They touch it and I see some behaviour which is correct.
But again, they are F999+ so, so far they did not "host" any of my Anemone.

-----------------------------

Since the Netherlands is getting some sun these days, my red Haddoni is turning towards the glass more often. During the winter it always pointed upwards to my lights, but it now gets some sun so it is turning towards the glas.

Sunlight is hitting the room but not directly on the tank.

It's nice to see it face on for once. During the winter it's hard to see the mouth.

It has been named as a Gigantea. Its kind of cool but a bit annoying ;)

He walked towards the light and the flow. If you consider buying a Gigantea… keep in mind this can happen.
