Is this a rock anemone color real?

I have a little rock anemone tank that I am constantly looking to add to. Just stopped by lfs and they had these blindingly fluorescent ones for way cheaper then they sold the other regular run of the mill ones. Ive never come across any rock nems that look remotely close to this, sure looks like a rock anemone if it was painted a regular green, is this for real? Sorry for pic, have a diatom problem on my glass, but the color shows thru, albeit duller than it really is in person.

i run wavepoints which have blue and white on together. Iphone camera always makes everything look blue, but the color is fairly accurate, if anything its brighter in person. Think avatar, the glowing blues in the forest lol
 
All 5 of mine glow under actinics. My off white/pinkish colored one almost looks like the blue plants in avatar under actinics. Not sure what the problem here is?

Have about 25 of them, I know what rock nems look like, seen the most ultra multicolored ones that pop under lights. Ive never seen one that looks even close to this. Think the blue center of a blasto coral. The entire nem is that single color and it glows like its blue kryptonite. The color is so different, just seeing if anyone knows what I'm talking about thats all. Will effort better pictures.
 
A better picture might help, but that doesn't look like any different under blues then any rock flowers I have seen.


Like I said I have one that is pink/whiteish under whites lights, and glows a brilliant blue under actinics.
 
Looks bleached a bit to me, likely just the pic though...
It's not usual to get a lower price and a more desirable product.
Looks like a RFA, be it without the traditional multi colored "flower" arrangements.
I may have missed the question....
 
It almost looks like a small, bleached, sebae. Do the tips have blue dots on them?

A much closer picture with truer color (turn off the blues) would help

Hoping these pictures are a little better. Can see the contrast with the other nems. They sure look like flower nems, albeit glowing blue ones..

Fully anticipating they will be rotated left upon upload, anyone know how to fix this on RC?

It looks like a bleached maxi mini anemone that I have honestly.

Like on purpose? Only thing I can get from searches are conversations on bleached anemones in the sickly, losing color aspect. These don't look sick; do anemones radiate this bright when they lose color? Would you mind uploading a pic?
 
I agree that looks like a maxi mini carpet anemone. All of the others look like rock flowers. That would certainly explain the difference in cost.

I didn't bleach it on purpose. Actually have two of them that did the same thing. Im not home right now but I will get a pic tonight and attach it.
 
Another one I have. This one is starting to color back up with purple in the center. In the blues they glow pretty bright on camera, I have an orange filter on these to get closer to real color.
