Carpet ID?

[usatennisfan]

I just left my LFS and they have a carpet in that I am interested in. To me it looks like an S haddoni but I am no expert. To me it looks like a plain Jane tan color rather than bleached. Any ideas? I apologize for the picture, it is from my cell. My friend who works there said they got it in almost a week ago and it really hasn't moved from that spot. It is happily attached to the back wall so I cannot see the column or foot.

Without seeing the underside i would say most likely atlantic carpet anemone.

Not a hosting anemone at all.

Was there spots on the bottum side or what they call those spots a verrucruce.

I couldn't tell, it was too folded over itself. I am out running errands and I have to drive right by the shop to get home so I'll stop back in and look.

So the column seems to have lined striations on it...

+1. I picked up a helianthus like that thinking it was a Gig a while ago.. There should be purple\blue color on the foot and the bumps will be purple\blue as well from my understanding.

Agreed. Helianthus have verrucae that are typically brownish orange and do look like gigantea.

This makes me sad, I thought I had gotten a good score. Good thing I just had them hold it until I could get more information.
