I'm interested in a good source for captive bred A.nigripes, from what little I can find, Sustainable Aquatics is about the only place that pops up.

Does anyone know of any smaller breeders that sell nigripes (and are reputable)?

Great question! I’m interested to see what you find out. SA is the only source that I know about.
 
I broke down and called SA and spoke with the owner (Sean? I cant remember his name).
He said he still bred A.nigripes and would have more available soon.

Looks like I'll be buying from SA.

Good to see you made the transition over from RC Maxx! You've been an anemone master since I first got into salt water 15 years ago! I just bought one from a local LFS and they said they got there's from SA. Unfortunately I came home from a week in the field and I believe it didn't survive the first week at home :( Looks like I'll be back in the search for another one.
 
Hey Gig!
Thanks for the kind words man, I appreciate it.
I'm good with H.magnifica's, but havent kept (or tried to keep) S.gigantea yet.
Being stuck in the midwest makes that tough....but I'd definitely try it if I stumbled on a moderately healthy one.

SA has a retail shop which is where I will most likely buy my A.nigripes from in a few months.
