carpet anenome

[sunkool]

I have a white with green tip carpet anenome that I bought thinking that my clown would host but I think he is a tank raised clown and has nothing to do with it.

I am willing to trade for soft coral with color.
I love mushrooms!
(hint hint)

Hmmmm, I have a shroom rock I'm about ready to part with and I'm propagating true red shrooms, not the red/brown kind.
I may be interested.

What kind of carpet? I'd be interested and have plenty of softies to trade(only dependant on the type).

do you have a pic?
as I said I love mushrooms and have a bunch of purple/ green ones. I think red would fit in real nice.

I have know idea. When I bought it I was told it was a carpet anenome I figured there was only one kind. I know he sometimes folds in four sides and looks like a flower. if that makes any sence.

I have never seen discos this color, that's why I'm aquaculturing them. I cut them about a week ago and they have attached. Probably another week and they'll be healed.

nice what other colors do you have?

[DJChesnutRabbit]

I have the regular purples and reds. I'm fixing to chop up about a 4" greenstripe and make lots more of 'em.

This is the shroom rock that needs to go. I couldn't have taken a worse pic of it tho.

I plan on breaking it to keep the yellow polyps and the remander can go. These guys breed like crazy and I don't want to take them over to the new tank.
The green srtipe in the pic is the one that's getting cut up. I figure I'll chop it into 8 pieces and make lots more of them.

[sunkool]

if I could get some of each that would be gerat Ill throw in some of my purple's if you are interested.

[DJChesnutRabbit]

NOooooooooooooo

I have those purples and they grow like crazy!

I'll throw some of those in too if ya want them.

[sunkool]

well let me know if you want to trade the anenome or sell the shrooms.
the purple don't grow like crazy in my tank. I wish they would.
the only time I get new ones is when I cut them for a new mount.

[DJChesnutRabbit]

Sent ya a PM.

[cschweitzer]

Could you get some pics of the base and oral disc? That would help in determination of type.

I have bunches of ricordias, a few miscellaneous discosoma(stopped searching for these once I got into ricordea) and some really nice and some very rare leathers, like pulsing sinularia, ORA green polyp toadstool, darker(but not Tyree) green polyp toadstool frags. I just need to ID the type, because some carpets are very hard to keep and I also do not want an Atlantic type. I'll do some leg work and find out, but the above asked for pictures would be a huge help.

[cschweitzer]

Do you know where it was collected? Where did you buy it from?

[sunkool]

no I bought it at Aquatic vissions in Port Richey. I never knew there were so manny kinds.

they have what looks to be the same as what I have.

on a side note I have a deal pending on him as we speak. If that falls through I will let you know.

[Me No Nemo]

Possibley and Atlantic Anemone...looks pretty close!

[cschweitzer]

Yep, that's what I was thinking...

[sunkool]

I did a search on Atlantic Anemone and found nothing that resembles this. A call to Aquatic vissions tells me that this came from the Gulf as 95% of there stuff did.

[cschweitzer]

Carribean and Atlantic anems are basically all the same...none will naturally host clowns...
