Here are some from just about 5 minutes ago. The lights are out in the tank and so I took the picture with a flash. You can really tell how well these clones are healing by the first picture. They both have fully formed mouths and are eating PE mysis like pigs! I believe the success with these anemones after cutting is to really have more than adequate water flow just after being cut.

Post Cutting Pictures
So I apologize for my late post, I had two tests these past two weeks and so I was kind of busy. Anyway, here are some pictures of the anemone 4 days post cutting. I will have to get some 24 hour post pictures next time I cut because it was a pretty rapid healing process with these anemones.

Looking GR8!!!
Did you dip them in Iodine solution before putting them back into the tank?
I usually dip fragged corals and such in lugols Iodine with tank water but I wanted to try Revive from Two Little Fishes and it seemed to work just great. I might try both dips, 5 minutes each and see how it works.
This is all REALLY interesting, Ian. Your pics are great. Very well done. JAMK
