    The first one is bleached and not in good shape. Second, you dont have the set-up or experience to care for anemones. Keep in mind that when they die, they release their toxins which can kill every single living thing in your tank.

    For the most part, yes. The snails listed below are reef safe and will be fine in your tank, assuming it's mature enough to support them:

    astrea
    turbo
    nerite
    cerith
    nassarius

    First one: a bleached LTA is my best guess.
    Second one: probably a healthier LTA
