Anemone ID Please

[SHNICI]

Hi, got this one month ago from a friend, and we don't know what SP is as I can't find and match it anywhere (check hundreds of anemones)
All I know is sand anemone, but want to read more about it. At the moment it stay in a box in the DT as I don't want it to move around and to damage something else at the bottom of the tank.

from the Link you can see all the photos I took: https://photos.app.goo.gl/NhEts7BK9vxN8iiD6



Sorry for the photos quality, and thank you in advance

It looks like a simple green BTA to me, it could potentially be something else though. My buns are telling me BTA.

Sorry, but really can't agree with that. This one is about 1.5inch diam and toll when extend near 2 inches.
And still can't match it with any majano on google

the tentacles aren't bubble like, they are from the base to the end very thick, and look more like spikes harpoon or the end of arrow

Oh hold on, I think I know what that is but I can't remember what it's called darn!

the tentacles look like this type of harpoon (look at the tip), but the front one is the same as the prev.

+1 for GBTA

No I mean I think I remember seeing that type of anemone before, I can't recall the species name though

unfortunately can't find any similar to that. it have bubbles like on the tentacles but they aren't bubble like shaped and it have 2-3 per tentacle (this arrow tip like)

And do you know @stevenliu9 BTA to borrow completely under the sand because this one do it.

Bubble tips don't always have bubble depends on the lighting. Just because they don't have bubble doesn't mean they aren't. I see the bulges at the tentacle stalks which is more often what they do.

Can you get a pic of the mouth/oral disk

Can you get a pic of the mouth/oral disk

I'll try to do it later on, if it's still open, I can force t a bit with the torch light, but it don't open completely.

 

[SHNICI]

Hope that's enough photos of it, macro and w/o, zoom and ...



You can see clearly and the tips, how they are shaped and to coloration there (under blue is more fluorescence there)

 

[James M]

Looks a lot like a beaded anemone

 

[Eagle_Steve]

@Eagle_Steve ,any idea??

With the tentacles and oral disk, it almost looks like some kind of Enthemonae anemone or a heteractis aurora (beaded nem).

Was this nem store bought or personally harvested? If harvested personally, where was it taken from? That will help narrow it down.
