lineage???

 

[tchan]

I dont understand what lineage are u looking for? I got the nem from a local Louisiana reefer 7 years ago, it’s bright red with a dark base and it has all the characteristics of a Sherman rose Anemone. Are u looking for a certain brand of Sherman rose nem?? I can assure u this is not your normal rose nem. I can also guarantee the colors of this nem as stated. Pictures do no justice of these nems. If u need more photos of them, pm me. Thx

I to thought this was kinda strange ?.to my understanding linage comes into play on nems that are similar. Sherman are kinda unique other than the widow. Can u fill us in on what you no about them?

I belive the red color with the purple/bluish foot was the tell. Op any thoughts?

sure!!! it’s a specific lineage of rose bulb tip anemone that originated out of sherman, taxes a long long time ago. sherman rbtas are a very deep red, the base of the tentacles into the oral disc are very dark colored. almost looks like grey. it should have zero of any other colors - green, purple, etc. the tentacles are generally long and don’t bubble up.

it originated via one single person, like i mentioned before then spread to a few other, also in tx. if you got it from one of these guys, then i’d be more likely to believe the lineage. just like with coral, if you can’t prove lineage then don’t ask people to price the same price as if you can.

I know the anemone 1st got its name from Texas. It’s suppose to have super bright reddish color under strong light. It’s base gets darker( grey black tone) under medium to low lighting. If u think this is not a Sherman rose, please educate everyone what a real Sherman looks like? Post some pictures to compare please. Thx.

They are pretty unique, one of the few that doesn't have more fakes than real. Although maybe there is rose btas that are similar. But like you said that red is pretty unmistakable. At only a few hundred bucks I think the linage just gets lost.

 

[Sparky88]

Like the op said that black,greyish, purple color on disc slash base is pretty good tell. IMO OF COARSE

 

[tchan]

Are these sherman rose?

there should be NO purple!

Is $160 shipped a high asking price? That’s like $100 without the shipping expenses.

here’s one, no color in the column either.

I never mentioned the color purple and please remember lighting makes a huge difference in the nems appearance as well as placement of them.

U SHOULD REALLY POST UP SOME OF THE SHERMANS U HAVE AND COMPARE.

that’s up to you and the market. again, the key is - can you show lineage back to any of the original guys in tx?

Judging from your photo, doesn’t seem like the lighting has any led lights in it. As I said, lightings make a huge difference in the nems.

lineage makes a bigger difference.
