I think this anemone might just pull through.

I'm so excited to finally see some improvement in this anemone. I got it in April and it was steadilly going down hill even though I was feeding it. Then at the end of July I started feeding it krill. Just take a look at it's progress over the last few days!! It's finally starting to color up and its tentacles are getting longer. :dance: Just had to share.

What anemone species is it? Hard to tell.
Is it a Magnifica?

 

[debadoo]

I was hoping someone on here might know. It was sold to me as a sebae but I have no idea if it might be malu or crispa. I thought it looked a little like magnifica. It started in the sand and moved up to the rock a few inches. Foot is tan but seems to be getting more color the last few days. I guess we will see when/if it recovers.

Can you get a picture of the column. Crispa, Malu or LTA all have veracue underside.
I can r/o some of the host anemones like LTA, any of the carpets, Unlikely to be Crispa or Malu. This leave the possibility of Magnifica or BTA. We can rule out/or rule in Crispa and Malu with a picture of the column.

Did you read the thread on zooanthallae transplant?

 

[debadoo]

I can't seem to get a picture of the column, but the few times I have seen it I did not see any veracue. I did see the zooanthallae transplant thread. Really interesting stuff!! I don't think I'm brave enough to try it though.

Use a small stick to lift the oral plate up, or take the picture when he flold over eating

 

[debadoo]

Here is the column.

That is most likely a Crispa

I'm glad the nem is coming through for you. I absolutely love nems!!!

 

[debadoo]

Thank you. I hope he continues to improve. I'm looking forward to seeing him big and healthy.

 

[debadoo]

Looking better every day

that is most likely a crispa

+1

 

[debadoo]

Is yellow a common color for a crispa's foot? I have been noticing this faint yellow spot on his foot and I don't know if it is color coming back or what. What do you all think?

 

[OrionN]

They are often dyed yellow. I am not aware that they have yellow spots on the column.

 

[debadoo]

Hmm. Do you think it could be leftover dye? It seems to be getting brighter, though. I thought it was a sign of his color coming back.

So how is he today? Update please
