Mini Carpets...post your pics.
i am not sure if there is already a thread or not of these little guys..and if there is oh well they are pretty...
i know they are out there so lets see your mini's...i guess your maxi's too... post some pics...i will start with mine...looked like nothing more then a paly polyp when i got him.. and today... i forgot to mention...my clown goby decided to try and use him as a host...not a pretty picture...   bad shot with flash:  and something a little closer:  mine isnt the most colourfull but i love the sticky little bugger... every three days i feed him a mixture of frozen brine, mysis, cyclops, and rotifers...i have to try and find some bigger meatier food.... would frozen squid work or should i find some sort of fish? would feeder goldfish work? or should i get some bigger shrimps?

Those are nice, I've never seen them. Is there a place you can recommend on line?

Did you get him as a hitchhiker or is there a place you can buy them up here?

Rarely more than an inch or two but I think there might be a morph that is 3"? Hopefully Gary M. sees this thread and chimes in because he'll know more.
Species name is Stichodactyla tapetum...

mine came as a hitchiker on the colony of zoos he is still in..
not sure what you mean by how do they stay? it is an anemone...has a pink foot just like most larger ones...he wiggles it into the rock and holds on... mine is currently 3" across but was less then 1/2 when i got him..i bought the colony of zoas specifically for him...i, and the dumb *** at the LFS both thought it was just a paly or a really pretty zoa.. lucky me... i wish i new where i could buy more of them on line.. kinda burns my butt actually...there where two wild colonies of zoas in the store wheni bought this one...both had a "funky looking" zoa...likely they were both mini carpets..i think i got the pretter of the two but you never know what they will grow into..wish i had them both...LOL
