I did not missed out on all the fun. I got a beautiful one. @Claybird1985 ordered for me. There were problem with deflation on some of the anemones but yesterday when I pick mine up everybody was doing fine.
this AM, mine were deflated so I have him in my hospital tank, under 5500K flood light. He is a beauty, three color tentacles. Brownish oral plates and first part of tentacles, then green, magenta tipped. The column is greenish yellow.

what’s the best acclimation process? Tempted to buy one for my 200 gal.
I soak the shipping bag for 20 to 30 minutes to temperature acclimate. I dump some of the shipping water out of the bag and float it back in the aquarium. I add 1/2 cup of tank water every 5 to 10 minutes until the shipping bag is close to full. This usually takes about 30 to 45 minutes.

New Heteractis magnifica Anemones at Pacific East Aquaculture with BRIGHT PINK-PURPLE bases!!



Natural sunlight, flow mostly off to photograph.

These anemones do best with intense full spectrum lighting, lots of flow, correct natural saltwater parameters INCLUDING IODINE (essential for long term health and survivability--verified via ICP testing), and daily feeding ( I use TDO pellets twice daily--small amounts!).
