According to the guy i got this from it came from the caribbean/atlantic/Florida so I know its not indo... It kind of resembles an atlantic carpet anemone and is very sticky to the touch, but it has long tentacles protruding from the mouth. It is a dark green hue with some light brown, and is about 4 inches across when fully opened. Any ideas???

Looks like s. helianthus to me. Had one myself for a while. Had a really good appetite for fish... even clowns. Unlike gigs and haddoni, they will split in two.

Still new to this forum. Did not realize that I could enlarge the pictures... definately not a helianthus....
 
Postal, Thanks. Any information on it, is it safe to be kept with small fish/corals? Is it uncommon?
