Your first one almost looks like a bleached rose in that picture Wopwopwop....

 

[kellyandcarrie]

Is the base of your frist one red? I didn't really see it, it could be a condylactis sp

First pic or first 1 I got?

First pic is a very bealched BTA..second pic looks like a seabe to me.

I think you need a better picture of the frist anenome that you posted, you cant see how brightly coloured the tips are, kinda like this http://www.saltwaterfish.com/site_1...ategory=4&category_search=63&root_parent_id=4 that anenome is sticky and looked healthy to me

I agree with this assessment.

Kellyandcarrie- That is a condy on the link you posted..the one picnic has is a BTA that has expelled most of its zooxanthellae and does not look healthy at all...

Hopefully you can nurse that bleached BTA back to health. Food, good lighting, stable water params and time. You can do it!

iReef69 - I was just saying that the tips had color, KINDA like in that picture. But I'm sure it is a buble tip, and like I said before, it does look bealched, except I wrote bleached, but I belive ya. =)

 

[kellyandcarrie]

My bad again, I Believe ya

..I dont even know if its an RBTA or a GBTA since its so white, but just as a reference, this is what a healthy anemone should look like. Just give it good lighting and some TLC and it might go back to healthy.

Well its been a few days and its bigger still.And the tips are a bright purple.Thx for the info.And the second 1 is a Sebae?

The first one is a really really bleached out RBTA. Make sure it gets plenty of lighting. Try feeding it small pieces of sliversides or small pieces of shrimp every other day. Do water changes once a week to keep up good water parms.

Your second pic looks like a Sebae to me.

Second pic looks like elegance coral, I had one similar to that, friend picked it up for me at the wholesalers in LAX.

 

[55semireef]

Hmmm, that does look like an elegance coral.

The first one is just a bunch of white balloon’s tide together. The second one is just an SOS pad colored with magic markers. Your live rock is just Styrofoam spray painted with that stone like paint and scotch guarded, And your clowns are really gold fish wearing little mask’s, sorry buddy.
