Green bubble tip with purple foot is exactly what it is.

Yup, BTA. Not a common color morph, but not really rare either. Unfortunately, once it gets settled you won't see much of the base.

In the first couple of photos I can see the similarity with a mag, but the other photos clearly show a BTA.

Magnifica tentacles do not tapper like the first few photo. Does not tapper and the end circumference is often larger than the tentacle circumference in Magnifica.

Yes, I agree. Sorry, I should've been more specific.

I meant to say that I can see why someone would think it could be a magnifica based on the color of the nem and how the edge of the disc appears to be curled where it meets the tentacles.

Thanks I’m glad to hear it’s a bubble tip! I got a magnifica once a while back and didn’t have too much success keeping alive long term.

They are BTA with white specs. Not special enough to be a named variety. I saw some people, desperate to add a "name" to the anemones, call these Acid Wash BTA.
