Anemone ID
Can anyone help to positively id this anemone? I'm pretty sure it's a Heteractis sp. but havent' been able to definitevly decide which one. Too many conflicting pictures and decriptions out there. Had it for a few years now and never really thought to ask on here before. Not the greatest picture, the color is more vivid purple and flourescent green with brite purple tips in person.
Thanks |

I think I can see white dots on the oral disk, which makes it a M. doreensis, long tentacle anemone.

+1 H. Crispa. They can also have white dots, or veruccae, on the underside of their disc or column. IMO there are too many tentacles for M. Doreensis, and the way the tentacles are held is different too.
