How is everyones mini carpet anemones doing?
A bunch of us ordered these ricordia wanna be's a couple months ago in a group order by Nelson, and I was wondering how big everyones was. Mine is doing great, it has doubled in size(which is only about 1 to 1 1/4 inch in diameter)
I was just wondering how everyone else's are doing? |

I was thinking of starting a thread like this too. Mine has gotten a little bit bigger and has a bright pink mouth. It is only still about the size of a dime instead of the size of a smartee. What is your secret?

No real secret really, I think it is mostly luck. I dont really have anything else in that tank that I really need to care to often(i.e. xenia, zoas) because I put it in my fiance's Nano Cube. All i have food wise there is flake food and brine shrimp. So everytime I am at her place I just feed the tank and use tweezers to spot feed him 1-2 brine shrimp. not the most healthy of diet, but i guess he doesnt mind.

Spot feeding is probably your secret. I bet nobody else is feeding their little guy brine shrimp with tweezers. Where do you guys buy brine shrimpies anyway? Frozen or live?

Ours has done basically nothing at all. It did turn a little pinker but it's still smaller than a penny. We recently placed a green torch a little too close to it (think it was getting stung a little) and it has decided to move about 2 inches- other than that it hasn't done anything at all- not that I expected much but I was hoping it would at least grow a little.

Well mine has moved a bit (still within 1" of where I put him) and has gotten very slightly larger (about the size of a dime now), but I haven't spot fed him or anything. He has also changed colour a bit - has a bright pink mouth, bright green stripes, and yellow-green tentacles...hopefully one day it will multiply....

Wait...they are supposed to get bigger according to the link. I thought they are supposed to grow to 2 inches. I don't want it to stay that small. I rather have a big one than tons of little ones. I tried to feed it cyclopeeze but no size change and he has moved only a few inches from where i stuck him.
