Does it have spots underneath its column?

At first glance it looks haddoni

I would say it's a Haddoni, but it could be a Mertensii. Need an ID of the foot to be certain.

It is haddoni. Beyond any doubt.

Thank you guys I am not home I will look at its foot for spots? Do spots confirm haddoni? It was at a store that never sells much salt and it was labeled alantic carpet anemone it was 40 thought that was a good price

Just looked up mertensii Def does not have a foot like that spotted I'm pretty sure it's a solid light pink/brown

If it truly is an Atlantic (s. helianthus), it is known to eat fish and won't host clowns. Still looks pretty sweet though. I've never seen one that color.

Haddonis do not have spots of any color on their column/under their pedal disk. Confident it is a haddoni but the absence of spots will verify.

99% haddoni for me the mouth gives it away.

Thanks for all the replies it defiantly does not have spots and does look like a haddoni to me. I am glad it was mislabeled.
