Anyone need a anemone?

[SHowald72]

I had a clownfish commit suicide and now I have an anemone without a clownfish. I think it is a BTA but not sure, I will see if I can get Andy to post a picture of it. I would love a frag for trade but if no one can afford that I will give it to a good home. Thanks, Shawn.

I may be interested. I will be looking for an anemone in a week or so. If you get a pic please send to goat585 at yahoo.com

Thanks

Andy/Shawn,

Do you know what type it is? Long tentacle maybe?

Looks pretty big. How large?

Thanks

[SHowald72]

That is not the exact one, but a split from it. That one is attached to a rock and hosts a mated pair of Maroons. The one I am letting go of is about 3 inches across the foot and opens up to about 6 to 8 inches. Under VHO lights, the tips are purple/pink and the body has some nice green hues in it. I was told it was a bubble tip and if you look at a young offspring in my one tank, it does have the characteristics of a BTA. From the original, I have had probably 7 or 8 offspring.

I would be interested if I can pick up in a 2-3 weeks. I am quite busy the next couple of weekends and it would be difficult to get out that way.. Anything special you are looking for? i could pay cash to.

[SHowald72]

Any sps I don't have or anything unique. If you don't have anything to trade, I will let you have it for free of charge. Are you going to Andy's for the meeting? If so, I can take it over to his house to make things easier.

[goat585]

I have no SPS, my tank is all softies and some LPS.

It looks like the may meeting is going to be moved. We could meet up at the next one.

[SHowald72]

Anything cool or different? We can meet up where ever is conveniant, I am pretty flexable on location but time not so much.

[goat585]

I have a cool red and green favia I can break a piece off. Besides that not much that is new and different. I have a couple of different zoos as well. I have some leathers, xenia and some mushrooms.

If we could meet up the weekend of the 19th that would work good for me.

Thanks

[SHowald72]

The Favia would work fine. I will have to check on the date though. If the xenia is blue xenia I would be interested in that also.

[SHowald72]

Are you still up for this weekend? If so, give me a call tomorrow and we can set something up. I will PM you my cell number. If anyone else is looking for an anemone I just had another one split into three. So I have plenty to go around.

What are you looking to get out of the anemone?

[SHowald72]

trade would be good or whatever is fair to the buyer. I'm not looking to make money of them, they just need good homes. If you can afford $20, great. If not you can have one for $10, if that is too much then you can have one for free. I'm not greedy.

I use to live in Freeport until last year and I still own rental property there. Small world.

[Jeremy H20]

Still have it or were you able to sell it?

[SHowald72]

I still have 3 or 4 that I can part with.

[shinbill04]

Do you still have any of the anemone left? We are looking to upgrade our tank quite a bit and are not happy with what we can purchase at the local pet stores here. Thanks!

[SHowald72]

I sure do. How soon are you looking to get one? Are you local?

[shinbill04]

I am in Rockford. Can I come and look at them this weekend? Thanks!

[SHowald72]

We should be able to set something up this weekend. I will PM you my cell #.

[goat585]

I finally met up with Shawn and picked up an anemone from him. It seems to be taking to his new home pretty well.

Here is a picture
