Giant BTA photo ?

Does anyone have a copy of the picture that once posted here of the gigantigonormous BTA that filled an entire 40g tank? I was trying to describe it to someone the other day, but words really don't do it justice =)

THANKS!

If you mean this one, it fills an entire 110-gal tank, not a 40-gal tank.

It's more than two dozen. I thought we all knew that already. The photographs of this particular tank have been posted over and over again for the past few years. I, myself, am responsible for posting it at least half a dozen times, probably more. We would have to ask Gene for the latest census because he's constantly giving away new clones.

We already played that game. Why do you think Scott is coming up with such a specific number? I believe I guessed 21 or something like that. I know I was too low.

Oh, boy... The minute I leave you guys are talking about my tank and my anemones...
Well, the lights are off and I can't count exact number but it is very close to the 37 number...
The problem with accuracy in counting all this clones is that lots of them are hiding under and behind larger specimens and at times I can't see all of them.
I counted the ones I could see for sure before leaving and it was 35, I know for sure that there were few more behind the really large ones because I could see some tentacles in the shadows.

Here's a better picture for you, Holly.
