This one I'm pretty sure is a gig as well, but I'm not as certain as the other tan one. Do you have another pic?

working on one..at least this one is healthy whatever it is...and Btw..did see the correct markings on the underside today when I did a water change..just the oral disk is less populated with tentacles than other gigs I have ,and have seen.

He looks like a Gigantea in that picture. It may be a hybrid. Hybrid often have characteristics that are in between Haddoni and Gigantea. The tentacle counts and spacing on the oral disk is misleading since he is stressed and not at his healthiest. The most likely characteristic that show that he have some Gigantea in him is the pastel color of the foot. I have pictures of my hybrid green carpet here somewhere.
