There’s a healthy H. magnifica showoff thread, and yet none for S. giganteas, so let’s start one!

There are some notable giganteas on this forum, and if you’re like me, you’re partly in this hobby to keep and care for these gorgeous creatures.

Let’s see ‘em!

Here are my Blue and Lime green. They’ve been with me since 2020, got them from @Asagi at BlueKai at 3” and both now easily 10-12” across.

Wouldn’t have been possible without your expert treatment! I just upgraded to a 180 and am tempted to get a 3rd ;)

From my insta. Nobody wants the tan ones.
You're wrong about that ...I'll take ANY color out there ..even some that I got with a drab brown color initially = colored up and look really nice under full intensity radion xr30's ..Blast them with light and good flow , and you'd be surprised at how they turn out.

I've seen the tan variants develop faint multiple colors under high spectrum, high intensity light.
