Taipan that red carpet is awesome!

I love S. haddoni for the spectacular range of colours. Some of the "redest, raddist" anemones I've seen were haddoni.

S. mertensii can beat out haddoni in size, and would something be interesting to see because you hardly ever see them in captivity .. but ordinarily they don't tend to be very brightly coloured.

I love S gigantea's however, these are perhaps my favourite species if I'm allowed to say such a thing. I currently have a green and a purple. The green is about 9 years now in care, the purple about 5. I'll look for pictures to share these.

I had a H. magnifica anemone for close to 9 years before I sold it in a moment of regrettable weakness (it was really too large for my setup, it was enormous, and was too much of a danger to fish inhabitants - not by consumption but rather it could shed an enormous amount of nematocysts at times which would then prove fatal to all fish in the tank except for the clownfish. The emotional toll of losing everything was too much and thus I sold it .... but unfortunately the person I sold it to had a tank crash and it perished a month later. I had it nearly a decade and would probably still have it if I could have had unlimited resources to dedicate towards multiple reef setups. :(

Let me go look for some pictures, will post back! :)
