Does this anemone look better?

I posted a thread about two months ago about a bleached carpet anemone I got with a system I bought. I've been feeding it nightly, and it has moved up towards the light a little. I just want to know if this is good progression for a bleached anemone. I have 2 gbta, and an lta, but have never had to deal with a bleached nem. This pic was taken under a 95w pc after the mh went off. Thanks

Yes its a carpet, at least that was the consensus here two months ago. I put it on the sand and it climbed up there the first day and has only moved up @ 2" the past two days. When it was in the other guys tank under a 400w mh, it was so bleached it was hiding in a cave receiving no light, but it was on his rocks as well. Right now its under 175w mh+ 95wpc in a 45 gallon tank and its about 12" under the surface. When it recovers, I'm going to put it in my 125g that has 2x400w mh and 440w vho.
 
It appears to be a lot healthier. One of the LFS that I have been to while doing research had a few little guys that looked a lot like your before shot, but I have no idea what species of carpet it is. Probably haddoni.
