Was looking for all the details...but it occurred to me that I could quit being lazy, click on your user information and look at your build thread.
Apologies for derailing this thread.

How big in diameter is your H.magnifica now?

Very nice your is still doing good.. Looks fantastic


I hope you do not mind me posting mine here since this is about the only thread where I have posted mine and we started our journey with this anemone at the same time with the exact same issues. This is not not my first mag.
Remember earlier I posted and he was brown with white tips barely alive. Now he is huge and really colorful.
Pictures do not show it. This aquarium is 4'x3'.

Mags will grow and grow and grow ….. well you get the idea. Sometimes they will favor you and split, sometimes they won’t. My large one is 30” in diameter when full inflated. Basketball sized when it balls up. Refuses to split. My ‘smaller’ one is about 15” when fully inflated. Cantaloupe sized when it balls up. I got it as a split, so I know it can ….

I might have missed it earlier, but do you direct feed your Magnifica? It looks great and I'm glad to see its growth!
Noooo... not anymore. It's actually getting to be really big. I definitely don't want to feed.
 

Gp!

How much height do you need to leave for a big mag to fit and be happy?
