So, I bought this guy when it was bleached almost totally white except for the purple/blue tentacle tips, it was also very very small.  So small that I think it is the smallest S. gigantea I have ever seen in pictures or in real life.  But I bought it for a cheap price and fed it almost every other day.  This video was taken months ago and I finally uploaded it.  You can see in some of the tentacles that the zooxanthellae is coming back due to the brownish hue.  The anemone today is mostly brown with blue/purple tentacles.  It has also at least doubled in size since I purchased it.  The color of the column has also turned a nice green color.  I am very proud of this success!!  This anemone eats the most out of all the anemones that I have.  It eats 3-4 pieces of silverside or shrimp every other day or so while the RBTA's I have only will eat 1, maybe 2 pieces.
I had to speed up the video so you could see what happens.  It is interesting to see and I hope you all enjoy it!  Also, turn off the audio on this video, I forgot to edit that out and it is annoying. 
Thanks, 
Ian
