Do tulip anemones come rose colored?

[SDguy]

So I found this anemone on my new live rock. It's about the size of a quarter/nickle, and completely red, just like a RBTA. Do tulip anemones come this color? Killing brown aptasias is easy. This guy's pretty though...Sorry about the bad pic. It's in an awkward spot and all I have is a point and shoot, no manual focus.

The only tulip anemones I've ever seen were green with pink tips -- I have them everywhere in my reefs. If it has bubble-shaped tips it might be a Majano anemone, I believe they come in lots of different colours.

I thought tulip and majano were the same thing

Anyone?

AFAIK they're different species. Tulips don't have bulbous tips, and are usually green with pink tips (Majanos seem to be solid colours). IME they're not agressive and don't spread quickly, and they tend to stick together in a little colony. In about a year my single tulip had become six or so, I believe Majanos multiply much faster and have a more agressive sting. I actually like tulips, every time I rearrange things I end up relocating one that starts a new little group but they don't wander or bother the corals.

Darn, I guess I should get rid of it then Too bad there aren't any really tiny clowns that would host it
