Strange anemone

chrisver13 · 02/19/2018, 11:35 PM

I got this anemone from a local guys, I am just confused as to what species it is. It has a brown foot, black base and the majority of the tentacles are black but the tips are white. The shape of the tenticles are kind of like a tear drop, thinner towards the base and bubbles toward the tip, but not like a bubble tip at all. The guy I got it from says it's from Indonesia but he doesn't know what kind it is either.
Any ideas? I have never seen one like this.

Now one can tell anything from that picture. Can you totally turn off the blue channel?
