Default FS/FT : GREEN Haddonis Carpet Anemone 12inch across

Bought two months ago and regardless of where I put my flow or arrange my lighting he blocks the one end of the tank. Wasn't nearly this big when I had it ordered in but was very stressed at wais and never opened past 8 or 9inches across.
Since being in my tank it has opened to 12 or more inches across.

Pictures don't even show how nice it is.








Would sell for 250 OBO.
Would trade for another large anemone and cash depending on size and type of anemone.
Not interested in green or red bubble tip anemones.
Would also trade for t5ho 4 or 6 bulb 36inch fixture or led fixture over 180w

250 or best offer... trying to avoid low balls and also good luck finding a Carpet that's healthy for under 200. Everyone that gets shipped in is either bleached to hell or showing mouth wide open and eventually die.

Pieces gets them in for 100 in Calgary but they die within 3 weeks. Wais has had 2 come in bleached pitch white and he's still asking 160$ plus not as big.

So yeah if you want to gamble 150$ on a bleached carpet or one with mouth gapping go ahead.

Also I have been offered by 4 different people 160$ to 200
Through private message.
Just still on fence about parting with carpet. Change my mind every other day

Default WOW !

WOW ! Prices are that HIGH in Calgary ? How do you guys keep up ? I would not have much stock if any if I lived out there. I am in Bradford, Ontario. 30 minutes south of Barrie and a little more then 30 minutes north of Toronto.

Off the top of my head there are about 10 or so independent salt water stores and 5 or so big als stores in the G.T.A. ( GREATER TORONTO AREA ).

I went to an independent store a few months ago the prices like most of the independents are roughly half price or less of bigs als and better quality.

I bought a large green carpet , a large green white carpet, and a lager plain color magnificent anemone for $150.00 and he threw in 2 anemone crabs.

So, wow the prices there are INSANE !!!

The average price for a large green carpet at Big ALs is around $100.00 or a LITTLE more. The independents can vary from roughly the same prices to a half.

If you look at the BIg ALS weekly specials on the weekends you will have a good idea what the going prices are here. Again Big' Al's is the most expensive for live stock.
