    +1 to LTA, although they seem too thin, and also too many tentacles....perhaps a deflated BTA?

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Looks like a Sebae to me. To get closer to an ID need color of base/column/foot. If possible macro image of oral disc and column.

    IMO it is nearly impossible to ID an anemone for certainty, unless the physical characteristics are prominent, like bubble tips.........
