It a condy.

Not gonna say I'm posative. But that does not look like a condy to me. I'm pretty sure its a sebae. But just my opinion

 

[SeahorseKeeper]

What color is the base?

 

[andrea.nichols.1650]

Tan

 

[andrea.nichols.1650]

The whole thing is the same color you see in the pic... Under blue lights the tentaclesare green with purple tip

 

[andrea.nichols.1650]

The codys the store was selling for 10 dollars looked like this

 

[Wiz]

Large disk, short tentacles, tan foot which I'm guessing is large. Still leaning toward sebae

 

[andrea.nichols.1650]

Well my tank is 9 months old... This is my first nem so bubble tip was my best starter option if its a condy i know they are not the best fit for reef tanks with other coral and a sebae well i heard they are hard to keep sooo im bout to call the store n flip out cuz if its a cody i paid about $20 too much plus it will sting my coral and a sebae if it dies its gonna flush about $1800 down the drain [emoji21]

 

[andrea.nichols.1650]

Here is some other pics kinda crappy but oh well

Almost posative its not a bubbletip. Could be a condy but I doubt it. Id put money on sebae. Sry:-( store sold it as a bubbletip?

 

[andrea.nichols.1650]

Yea Well it said bubble anemone for $30... My fault for breaking my own rule and buying coral from petco

 

[kchapmanjr]

Definitely a sebae.

 

[andrea.nichols.1650]

Uhgg shooot me now

 

[Wiz]

Are those pics earlier or later? I ask cuz sebaes tend to like sand while condys usually move around a lot and seem to prefer rock. Dont think it matters though. Id be pretty surprized if it is not a sebae

 

[kchapmanjr]

And you have the same worries to varying degrees with all anemones.

It's a badly nourished BTA. Color is diminished from loss of zooxanthellae, tentacles are stubby from chronic malnutrition.

 

[andrea.nichols.1650]

Those pics were last night ... I put it on the rock at the battom n tried to walk off it during the night but went back onto it but i moved it up higher todsy because my t5 lights stopped working so since my lights arnt strong i wanted it higher

 

[andrea.nichols.1650]

Well i fed it this morning so hopefully it will help it.

 

[andrea.nichols.1650]

So here is pictures i just took
