It's not a peach carpet. It's a s.mertensii.

I was going to say the same thing so far mine eats a couple pieces of mysis a day!I've read that keeping them well fed can help minimize the likelihood of their snacking on your fish?
Every day I wasn't on shift, I lost a damsel from the tank with the huge carpet, because my coworkers didn't feed it. T-TI was going to say the same thing so far mine eats a couple pieces of mysis a day!
See that's what I told the people at the dang fish store I purchased it from and they insisted that it was a peach... pretty frustrating feeling like I
Just got ripped off then. Paid 75 for it...
My LFS had it listed at 100, I got them to drop to 75! Great news then! I want it to get about a foot across then I will slow its growth! Clowns don't seem to interested in it yet, but I'm sure that will change!s. mertensii anemones are very hard to come by and are typically a lot more expensive than $75. i wouldnt say you got ripped off, you certainly got the better end of the deal! i find that mertens carpets also dont eat fish as readily as haddoni carpets do. just dont feed it and it will grow MUCH slower.
heres my blue carpet very proud of it
That last one is a haddoni. Common with those stripes.
For lights, my tanks are 100% LED. I'm using reefledlights.com XTC fixture with home center 5k spots added next to the XTC fixtures. Spots are not dimmed. XTC is running at about 95% intensity. 1.5 hour ramp time up and down.
9:00 XTC starts ramping up.
10:30 XTC at 95% intensity.
5k spots on at 12:00
5k spots off at 8:30
9:30pm XTC start ramping down.
11:00 XTC is in night mode, replicating actual current moon intensity all night.
Carpets do really well with rediculous amounts of light.
