That is a ultra rare pink with yellow tip long tentacle anemone and the other is a multicolor seabae anemone :)
Im sure it won’t stay pink since it looks bleached, but a red and yellow LTA is gorgeous none the less! There’s a guy in Singapore (I think?) with a red and yellow tip magnifica. What I would pay for one of those! :cool:Lol

I’m actually trying to get one of those I’m looking for a red mag and a purple mag with blue tips I’ve had them in the past definitely my favorite coloration on the mags why I always end up selling what I have I’m never happy :’) as the for the pink long tentacle I’ve had red and yellow tips come bleached before this was labeled differently and I know the guy well that’s sends them from the Philippines this long tent was like making the fishermen excited :’) I have something even cooler coming next week I’m told it’s a surprise but I think it’s some sort of double Mertans carpet anemone.

Amazing nems! Do you often get LTAs in, or was the pink one a special occasion? I've been scouting for a new LTA after my last one (Red w/ white tentacles) died due to my own stupidity. I hope to dedicate the whole bottom of my tank to LTAs in the near future, I've just been having trouble finding unique ones!

Holy crap... You don't know what I'd give to have even one of those xD You mentioned that you sell nems, how do you go about this? After I run Flux I'll probably start looking again, so I may keep you in mind for it.

I just realized, it looks like you're using a HOB filter for that tank! Is this tank standalone, or is it plumbed into a larger system?

Ok, this piqued my interest. What exactly is a rainforest room? Like an indoor greenhouse kind of deal? I ask because I've got a grow tent in my bedroom, I grow highland pitcher plants in it and it's a similar deal. I don't want a bunch of crazy equipment to monitor, because I've got so many other hobbies to keep up with xD

Those are amazing frogs! It seems like we've got very similar interests lol I've currently got an uninhabited 18"/18"/24" vivarium that I'm growing out, it's been a fun little challenge to keep. It's really been growing in lately, I'll share some pics. I'll include a pic or two of the grow tent as well!

And this Nem i haven’t fully identified yet is definitely a hosting species and can touch all other carpets and magnifica without any signs of distress to either of the nems. Really opens up and has folds like a gig I wonder if it’s a type of carpet???
