Was lucky enough to find this gorgeous anemone up for sale. The previous owner had it for over two years. Had been trying to find a gigantae for a while, so had to get it.
Any tips for long term success?

Under t5 here (8x80).

First photo yesterday few hours after introduction in tank. Second pic today 24 hours later.

Super bright light, good water moment, stable parameter with good (not too bad) water with no pH spike. Clown fish would be nice. These guys are surprisingly hardy once acclimated to tank life. Don't neglect changing your water.
Beautiful anemone. Good luck with him.
