I'm such a sucker for shag carpets. Both these are Stichodactyla gigantea (and the clownfish are Amphiprion ocellaris). The green I have had since 2004, the purple since 2008 I think (maybe 2009).

It's actually kind of hard NOT to get a photo of the trigger. She loves attention..




Oh! Are you taking another picture? Let me get in there...

Haha yeah she sort of does! I think that was when the clam first hit the sand and they're all figuring out who's gonna get to flip it over.

seriously, that trigger is gorgeous but I had to crop her out of A LOT of photos LOL. She's like Miss Piggy. Look at Moi! No seriously, LOOK AT MOI NOW! Rabbit fish and moi! Lavender Tang and moi! Birds nest coral and moi!

Those carpets are gorgeous too. You don't see those every day!

That tank is looking great. Are you planning to put a moulding or trim around the tank when the drywall has been all painted?

Hahahahahaha!!!! That's awesome. That might just have to be her new nickname!

She makes feeding the LPS a very interesting experience. It totally doesn't matter how late into the night I wait, she shows up. "OH, DO YOU HAVE PELLETS? I WUV PELLETS NUM NUM!!"

Thanks, they are definitely a favourite of mine too. I used to have a huge ritteri anemone for many years and the thing was gorgeous but a high maintenance beast. These guys are quite tame in comparison.

Thanks! Yes, the moulding is a project coming up in the next few weeks (the rest of the basement needs it as well around the doors and such.) Nothing too elaborate planned for the tank, just some moulding on tops and sides and a small trim along the bottom. Just enough to put a drink on or rest the wrists on while staring into the tank.
