I say they are NUKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! nice score Gary. How is the tank doing?

I will post some pics of mine once I get home. When messed with they retreat up into the nook in the rock they are attached too. mine also crawl around. I propped a rock onto one of mine (unknowingly) and it had split by the next day. two days after that, one had moved about 3 inches away, and the other stayed...

Here are the ones I have, sorry its a little big and fuzzy I still havent mastered my camera.

Hey Matt can you get a pic of them closed up?

The reason I said conclusively they are Nukes is it looks like they have sediment in their tissue. You can see it in the last pic of them closed up, which I don't think the anemones have a speckled tissue......See if you can get a pic of them closed up.......

Those are sweet anemones, I had a couple but have lost their location in the tank.....Could be dead to I suppose.

i think they are nuclear greens

 

[MarvinsReef]

yeah.. they do look very close to Nuclears...

it'll be awesome to get a photo of those anemones closed up Matt.. I don't remember mine having sediment on the stolon when I had those anemones...

yeah, that pic of them closed up definitely looks like a protopaly, so prob nuc greens.

minibow matts pic DEFINITELY shows rock anemones.

man, i didnt realize they looked so close. lol

somehow I missed angrygarys last pic with them closed up. His are definetly zoas (nucs). When I agitate mine, they retreat into the rock, and not just close up... I have nuclear greens in my tank and the nucs are a lot brighter. the patterning and coloration is extremly close... I will try to get a pic of them closed...

/agree with nukes b/c of the closed pic as well. I think when closed protos look like the edge of little rubber ballons rolled up.

chris,
do you have any nukes? if not, you are welcome to these if you want. maybe a couple frags in trade?? (or in my case, in charity!) PM me if you want.

Gary I said they were nukes from the beginning and after seeing the pics closed up, I say 110% nukes!!

Nice!

 

[angry gary]

its nice to have something good happen after i lost a few a while back to pox. but i do not really understand where they came from. did they just happen to be there all along or were they at some point in a tank or system that had nukes in it?
