I got this Gigantea about 3 weeks ago. He was a little sick so I treated him with Cipro. He did well. I have to go out of town for Spring Break so I ended the treatment early and put him into my sump. Here he is today, totally recovered and turn out to be a really nice multicolor Gigantea. Nice color with orange tentacles, green and yellow

You've got the golden touch with them. Have a great time with the kids.
 
Here he is, doing very well and start to really have color show through. The camera does not quite capture the orange, yellow and green tentacles.

He is getting healthier with longer tentacles. Lots of flow. I think I will feed him to get him larger. He is only about 4 inches fully extended.

I took a video of him this afternoon. Best view in 1080HD
 
Wow that is an awesome nem! What a difference from the first pic to this last one.
 
My Petco used to get cool stuff also. Got some rock flowers a hitch hiker plate coral some other stuff
 
An update.
This is a keeper for me. Picture today somewhat capture the red and orange coloration of this anemone, but not as good as he looks in real life. I am not sure why my Olympus camera cannot capture the color accurately.

I don't know if anybody notice the scar on the head of my female Percula. Got her from a LFS a few weeks ago. Somebody brought her in. Very pale and thin. With feeding she have improved a lot. There is a scar on the white part of the head, I hope this will resolve with good care. She is doing a lot better and have gain a lot of weight. Almost like scar from HLLE, but I never see these erosion in clownfish.
