I bought this from a lfs and i was told it was a green Sebae by the owner. just wanted to make sure it was. i had it for about a week now an its doing a lot healthier than the state i got it in. its already found a nice spot in my tank to settle down in and my platinum sleeps in it at night.

My guess would be Heteractis malu, but it's hard to be certain without seeing the column. It could be Heteractis crispa as well. Both are considered "sebae anemones" in the trade. If the foot of the column is orange it is most like H. malu.
 
I would say 100% sure that its a H. Malu. I had one exactly like that for a few weeks, and I have another now that looks exactly like that, but with different colors. That is a pretty one, don't see them a lot.
 
It is a Malu. You need to feed it some. He will develop longer tentacles and looks nicer. Tentacle count of Malu is much lower than Crispa. He is green which is the same color as my male Malu
