Identify anemone

[Tim Plow]

Can anyone tell me what kind of anemone this is?

 

[wicked_NaCl_h2o]

looks like a Long Tentacle Anemone to me. Color form- brown, gray or purple and the base is orange or red.

Long tentacle indeed

It would be nice if the pic was backed up a little, but yeah, I'm thinking Condylactis too.
For one thing, M. doreensis (LTA) would have prominant verrucae and there are none.

I originally thought it was a condy, but I thought clowns didn't take up with them normally. Also, do long tentacles have bumps on their base? The orange base on this one looks to be smooth.

Here is an addition picture when the flow is low. Sorry for the bad pic

Nice clowns, how big are they? 2 inches?

That would be a Condylactis aka Condy anemone. This anemone has no prominant verrucae. Just because an anemone has the same color base of a LTA and and long tentacles verifies nothing. Its a condy indeed.

Yeah...I would say the female is around 2 inches. They have recently been laying eggs often. I would love to learn how to breed them, but I hear that it is tough.

Defenite condy. Beautiful color though, I don't think I've ever seen a blue one
