I just got one of these last night!! Very cool, but the kids think it looks like a mushroom...noticed it had spread out a bit and moved this morning, is red with green tips. Got it for my clowns, but I guess they won't host these??? Still pretty cool! Didn't realize they had such a following!!

There are two groups of pictures, one set has five carpets and the second has two pics. with a total of four carpets. The four are the newest ones I've picked up. I have nine in total. All have either the original color some have intensified, the brown one was shipped to meet sight unseen and arrived that color

Where are you finding them with such variation by the way? All the ones I see up around here all have the exact same colour/patterns.

I actually meant the first picture of each grouping, sorry if that didn't come out right. Specifically these two pictures:

This one:

(Mine started off looking like this)

And this one:

(which mine now looks like as of two weeks ago)

I was curious if these two pictures are of the same anemone or two different ones?

They do move and quite a bit if the light is not suitable for them.

A video of my maxi mini and the porcelaine crab feeding. It's so cute to see them together:

Sorry didn't see this post. It took about 2-3 weeks for all mine to bleach. They all were placed on the end of my rock work in a shaded area under 250w de bulbs. I also put a few in my frag tank under T5's also in a shded area. All have bleached on me and have never moved more then a inch from where I placed them. I have had them for about a year now and all still are bleached. Like Tony I have been running BIO Beads the whole time. I do realize these are low light anemones .
