    The other day I got two anemones that I think are BTAs. I have a big green one that definately is, but I also have this small pink one. I have heard some people say that you cannot get pink btas.

    This one is pink, with purple tips. And is home to my anemone crab atm :)

    BTA, a condy wouldnt have bubbly tips like that and a sebae sebae usually is whiter in color and lots of tentacles that aren't bubbled.

    Agreed^^ Looks like a BTA to me definitely not a condy it would have an orange base and white or brown tentacle which are way longer then that
