Can you ID this anemone?

I got this with a complete tank setup on new years day. I was told it is a LTA. It recently split leading me to belive it is actually a BTA. I don't have much experience at all with anemones. I've never seen it try to bubble up.

After talking with the previous owner I have been feeding it a LOT more than it was use to. Maybe that was a mistake causing it to split? I know it seemed to be getting larger almost daily before.

Probably a bta, but the way the foot is atached leaves my mind open for it being a magnifica. The pic isn't quite close enough to see though.
 
IMO thats a BTA..you can tell by the girdle around the disc and then it has the stripes towards the mouth..
 
The tentacles do get thicker but I or the previous owner have never seen it bubble up. I have read a little today to learn no one really knows why some do and some don't bubble.
