Picked this guy up for $25. Looks rough but very sticky. What do you guys think?

Stichodactyla helianthus. Not a host species and known to eat fish. Found in the Caribbean where there are no clownfish.

Evenly spaced tentacles and rust colored spots (verrucae) are a clear indicator of S. helianthus.
 
Ok, I did a little more research. It was sold to me as a Gig and I thought it may have been a struggling Mertensii . Bummer thanks for the ID guys.
