Anyone got a blue carpet? This is my pride and joy since returning to the hobby. Its a big grainy but you get the idea. And my golden nugget photobombing

This is my red carpet. It is 12 inch in diameter and has a good taste for Hawaiian flame wrass and burbonius anthias.
Mines probably around 8"-9" when fully expanded. Its finally getting its folds. Mine hasnt claimed anything too insane besides a GIANT lawnmower, a peppermint and sadly, my dragonette jst recently... i love the reds as well. When i seen the blue i had to grab it up. I got it for $250 when around 6" which is an INSANE deal. It was a trade-in from Doc from Docs Ecosystem to a LFS. Here was the picture Doc sent me when i reached out to sse if it was indeed his. Please post pics of your growth! I love the reds possibly more than my blue

I just replied in earlier post
Hes pretty sweet too. Cant wsit to see mine that big. I feed mine anywhere from a half to a whole silverside. Itll literally eat a whole silverside, extend, then catch eco eggs and eat them! Its insane
 
I've wanted a carpet nem for a while, are they safe for clowns? I know they'll eat about anything, I suppose it's hit or miss?

Ive read mixed experiences. If u keep them fed, they wont feel the need to eat a clown. I feed weekly for tht reason.
 
Tht is a beauty. Ive realized my taste of corals and nems is a bit exotic. Since i got a new fragtank up, i hope to cultivate some rare gems
 
I have had a blue one for about 10 years and recently added a huge red one!

Great pics. I love the way the blues shimmer. They have a velvety blue look in the perfect light. 10 years?! I hope mine stays around that long
