Had I the space I would snap up the blue one immediately. (I already have a green one ).

Be advised that this species is notoriously difficult to acclimate to captivity. Should not be attempted lightly, but these are fabulous looking specimens that are rarely seen.

Tony, I thought for sure you'd snatch that blue Gigantea up. Too bad you don't have the space! I know you've been looking hard for rarer carpets.

Oh I wasn't saying they were Haddoni, if that's how it came across. I was just saying, it would be super if I could find a nice healthy Haddoni. I would never try a Gigantea... I've read way too many horror stories and not enough success stories That and I don't have nearly enough experience with different species of anemones !
