Green or ose BTA?

[jefra]

Hello,

I recently acquired what was sold to me as a rose BTA. I'm wondering what you all would consider this coloring to be. It does has some lower rose tentacles and a rose foot. The upper tentacles are a bright green with a purple tip though. I know ultimately it doesn't matter as far as husbandry, since they're all variations of E. quadricolor, but I'd just like some additional opinions. Thanks!

Thanks for all the compliments! I've never really heard of a rainbow BTA before. Are the different colors from different regions?

BTA's range in color from brown, green, red, pink, orange, blue, etc. The hue and depth of color depends on the strain and concentration of zooxanthellae.

that don't look like a rainbow to me. I have 6 of them in my tank. rainbows have some yellow in them and I see no yellow. I could be wrong though. my rainbows change colors all the time. its either all green, yellow and green or yellow green and red. Its different almost everyday

I would consider that a BTA, not a Rose BTA.
