Anenomie growth

This is the anenomie we got from petco and they sold it as a bubble tip anenomie. Started out about the size of a tennis ball.




This is what it looks like now. I think it looks more like a long tennicle anenomie. What type do you think it is?

 

i agree from the looks of it and since its in the sand thats where LTA like to be

 

its an LTA.. look at its foot area...it should have some little tan dot type things in a pattern.. idk what they are called but its foot has a dot pattern..

 

definately long tentacled anemone, tell from the stripes

 

LTA for sure- no doubt, below the anthia fish correct? You are having troubles with a wall coral too, are you not- did it come from the same place as well?

One good thing, it's getting some color back, so you are doing a good job. How old is your tank/system?

 

It does have much better color. Looking good, agree that it looks like a LTA.

 

Def. a LTA. You have also done a GREAT job in getting the color back, but just for future referance it is anemone not anemonie
Awesome coral though

What color is the column/foot? Does it have white bumps?

 

Corailline are you thinking Retteri (spl)? Look close at it's center.

 

I was ruling out Sebae, because the first image looks like a bleached Sebae, and BTA and Sebae often get sold as each other when their small by mistake. Sebae have the raised bumps on the column a unique characteristic to them.

The only way to tell is a macro shot of the oral/disk for tentacle placement or the white lines that are often seen surrounding the oral opening of BTA. Color of the column is also a good direction to go in ID.

Could very well be a LTA but I can not tell to guess from the images.
