Bubble Tip Identification

[Sully32]

I have been selling these anemones locally for a few years as Rainbow Bubble Tips. Over the past year or so I've had a lot of buyers saying they don't think they are rainbows. Does anybody have a more specific name for this color morph?

Looks like a rainbow, but I'm sure there's a $200 name out there for it!

Looks like a rainbow to me, but I’m no expert. Bought one nearly identical to these a couple weeks ago for $20, that seems to be price where I’m at for these.

How about speckled rainbow?

They look amazing! Who cares what they're called lol

I've never been into the name game, but I've had buyers arguing with me that they are X, Y, and Z instead of rainbows. I just wasn't sure if I should be posting them under a different name so that it isn't misleading to potential buyers. Thanks for the replies! I will just stick with rainbow.

I'd be interested in hearing what the heck they're calling these instead of rainbows!

If you’re ever locally in Los Angeles area I’ll take one. Lol.

Possibly call it A marbled rainbow. But a rainbow all the same. If your looking for a high dollar nem they need yellow tips. But the speckled and "marbling" makes them more beautiful imo and worth a little bit more. It can come and go though.

The lfses around me all sell them for $80-$100 too, but from local reefers the going price is $20-$25.

Nope. You're just dealing with a bunch of Chad's.

How do you know they arent Karens?

 

[Sully32]

Thanks again for the replies. Like I said, I don't buy things for the name or even pay attention to names for that matter. I hardly know what any of my SPS or Euphyllia are actually called. I sell these for $25-50 locally depending on size. I don't know the going rate for different names, morphs, etc. People have told me that these can't be rainbows because they have a lot of marbling and speckles on the foot. I have never looked into that. I will just continue to call them rainbows haha. I've had people saying I should sell them cheaper and others saying to sell for way more. I just wanted to confirm that I am going about it correctly. Thanks, everyone!
