MountainM,

Percs could host to anything.. Mine hosted to allmost everything i had in the tank , Frogspawn, clam, candycane and many more.. So your chances are good..

i would be interested too if ORG got some nice Carpets.

Blue Carpets are there...

BE WARNED....

These will EAT fish - so if you have fish other then Clowns - they my well disappear.

That being said...the carpets that arrived @ ORG are 4"-8" and are beauties!

Well AJ... how much were they running do you remember? I'd wouldn't mind picking one up and putting it in a tank with those two percs I ordered... I have a carpet right now... but he is one of those carpets that eats everything, including most clown fish... lol super stickey... only a clarkii can hang out with him and not get eaten... been looking for a nice "normal" carpet

Not 100% sure of the pricing...

I think that they were around a hundred and something bux - reasonable for sure.

These guys are "STICKY" like you wouldn't believe - when we were placing them into the tanks...it took like 3-4 shakes of your hand to get them to let go.

:D

These are beauties though...

I picked up one of the blue carpets along with two of the perc's on Thursday evening. I was wondering is this anemones a Stichodactyla gigantea? Also does anyone now if the perc's at org were captive bread or wild caught.

Thanks,

John

The blues were S. gigantea for sure :) The red carpet they got in was was a haddoni. I would love to know how all the anemones from that shipment are doing. Does anyone has updates?
