I really love the blue ones, there's a guy in Orange county and he can bring them back from the dead. Amazing, I'm from Orange county but it's not me I deal with a totally different animal.

Some people are just gifted with some species even when you follow all the "rules"!

Is there anything in this hobby you don’t have? I swear every time someone posts a “does anyone have experience with this“ thread, you have it. I’m jealous because you have everything and it’s always beautiful lol.

do you notice many bifurcate tentacles on your gigs, I recently picked up a yellow one with lots of bifurcate tentacles and very light if no veruccae on the outer disc. I am wondering if its a hybrid..

I have not noticed any, but I haven't specifically inspected for this. I can look tonight. You should post a photo of yours and I am sure others can chime in on the hybrid thoughts.

About 7 years ago, I noticed a tentacles with 2 base but 1 tip. Kinda reverse bifurcated tentacle. I took pictures of it and posted on RC. If I find these pictures again I will post it here. I think in my case the tentacle was damage and on healing it stuck and healed with the other one. However this was not bifurcated tentacles like Magnifica.

I had this anemone for 7 years. It is in my DT. Just healthy and high flow will result in long tentacles like that.

Looks great and I could only hope to have mine look like that in the up coming years.
Ever thought about presenting a MACNA or some other event about your experience and knowledge of both gigs and mags?

The green one is higher and catch more flow and more food then the brown one. Years ago the brown one was markedly larger then the green one but they settle to this position for at least 2 years and the green one is slowly getting larger. They are catching food during this AM tank feed in this picture.

I took a closer look at all 7 of mine today. They all have a few fork tents, some have only a few, others have many, but all 7 of mine I can find double headed tents.
