Free anemone!

On Saturday Nov. 10, I stopped at the new fish store the Reef. I was there a little bit before they opened' but John the owner opened a little early and let me in. He announced that I was the early bird winner, and he proceeded to bag up this big beautiful white anemone with purple and yellow highlights.

I felt so awkward I bought another frag and some filter bags. After putting the anemone in the tank, I am super excited, it looks really cool. I would post a picture, but my camera on my phone is not working.

Here they are:
