Another, please identify this anemone

I bought this and Emily about three months ago from my local fish store. They did not know what it is. It lives in the sand, has been doing very well, and my Ocellaris have not been interested. Actually, they were in my Magnifica and switch to my long tentacle anemone after I bought it. The mystery anemone picture of the underside shows white rocks on it. Not to be mistaken for white spots on the underside.

Incidentally, I don't believe my fish have read the handbook on where they are supposed to be hosted.

Need better/clearer pictures. However, from these picture I would guess H. malu

I had to recharge the battery in my camera before i could take these pictures that I hope are better than my Iphone pictures.

I had to decrease the size to under 100Kb. I clearly have problems posting pics on Reef Central.

Thank you Orion for responding to my post. I hope these pics are clearer!

Living in the sand. Smaller anemones (max 8 inches) with bands on tentacles cause me to positivity ID it as H malu
