    Yeah I have to agree, Seabae anemones are usually White or pinkish white.
    Yellow ones do not exist in nature thats for sure. Here is a link to a wet web
    media.com
    article about dyed anemones

    To bad its dyed and it will eventually lose that color cause its kinda pretty.
    From what I understand its going to need some special care as it loses that
    coloring. You might want to check out the WWMedia.com there is a wealth
    of information about Anemones and their care.

    No the color is not shown in pics but in live view its neon green. I don't think its a sebae. Pus it not a DYED anemone.

    Does this picture look Familiar? Its a Dyed seabae Anemone from 5 years ago.
    It comes from this page. If Bob Fenner says its a Dyed Anemone you gotta
    believe thats a dyed Anemone!
