Just got a shipment in and trying to ID these guys.. I'm guessing Heteractis Malu but these yellow feet are so pretty.

Wow! Wasn't expecting that yellow foot at all.
Yeah it's quite vivid. I dont think its artificial either. I think I'm going to change my guess to H. Crispa. The density of tentacles is why I'm second guessing. Some of them hold their shape like a malu/carpet where the fold up and make little peaks; unlike Ritteri, LTA's and bubbles which tend to keep their oral disk relatively flat IME.
 
I believe crispa but very similar to Malu anemone
 
Looks just like a yellow foot malu I had years ago. Wish I still had that nem lol.
Agree as stated. Was a toss up but malu stands out
 
We got 7 of them in from the Phillipines yesterday listed as Radianthus sp. All of them look great after the first night in cipro with the exception of one who has a completely inverted foot where all the insides are sticking out. Going to continue the treatment on him and see how it goes. The other 6 are in isolation but not being treated tonight as they look robust and happy. A few of them did throw out some dark globs of grossness, but that's to be expected.
