Anemone id, LTA?

[grahxen]

Picked this up from a friend of mine. In his tank the tentacles seemed to extend further then in my tank, but since placing it in my tank under my 250W halide it's almost double the size of it when it was in his tank under his VHO's. It took to the sand/rock as soon as i put it in the tank and attached quite nicely. His foot is basically inside a cave and he extends outside when the lights come in. He has already devored some silversides. The color seems well, the brownish green color. Seems to be very healthy as far as i can tell so far. Any idea if it's indeed a LTA, looking at it closer reminds me of a BTA the way some of the tentacles look. But i am not the expert. Also, what clowns tend to host with this anemone, my false percs show no interest and rather sit inside my open brain.

looks like a BTA to me. They quite commonly place their foot in rock caves. The tentacles also look like BTA. If it is M. doreensis (most common LTA) it will have little sticky spots on the underside of the oral disc. If BTA it will be smooth.

definately E. Quadricolor. (BTA). Looks pretty good. He should darken up some under the Metal Halides. Also, Tomato Clowns love them to death. When I purchased mine my tomato clown took to him in about 5 minutes.

Thanks so much guys, a big help as usual. I have 2 false perc clowns now, I was thinking abotu purchasing a tomato clown in the future anyway. Is there any problem mixing a tomato with my 2 false percs???


Thanks!
