It is a haddoni. It is also bleached. It will need super stable water parameters, strong lighting, and will need to be fed small pieces of shrimp for a while if it will eat.
also, how old is your tank? Haddonis do not do well in newer tanks and need a ton of filtration, as their waste can be quite large. Also, you tank needs to have some finer sand in it. They like to bury their foot and attach to the glass if they can.
as for being aggressive, they technically aren’t aggressive. They don’t hunt fish. Normally easily startled or overly curious fish are the ones that get eaten. These guys have been in a mixed reef for 3 years and have only claimed one fish that got feisty and tried to steal the shrimp that was being fed to it.
Clarkii clowns are the trick for me. They are so protective that they run anything off if they ever get close.
I moved the gravel in an area so it could attach to the glass, what can I do about it being bleached? I have a light I bought from Amazon. My tank is literally like a month old but I bought some live rock from the closest fish store to me and transported it in water to try and keep all the good bacteria on it so far my water has stayed very good even with a few damsels. Nitrates are the only thing that go up and I have a bottle that I pour in and it lowers them till I do a water change. So far only lost one fish but I like anemones I understand the dangers and that a fish may die I was reading about having multiple tanks one for anemones which I may do cause I just started having a fish tank again after years and wish I'd gotten a bigger one. This morning I woke up to his mouth kinda messed up don't know if it's cause he ate last night or what?It is a haddoni. It is also bleached.

I also live in the middle of nowhere so it's not easy for me to just pass it on it'd be like 2 hours away to find someone, I bring my fish home in a styrofoam bin.I agree it is a haddoni and it is bleached. The anemone is probably not going to be too happy in your newer tank even with the established rock, but that is a guess.
I have two clarkiis and one occy; eight fish total. I have two haddonis that have been in the tank over a year. Not saying it can't happen but I have zero fish deaths due to haddonis or otherwise. I have had nems in the past, never caught a fish....all that said it is obvious that some people have had different experiences where fish were lost. So far, I am good.
I would probably try and see if you could pass it on to someone else considering that your tank is relatively new.
