Looks like a Long Tentacle if you ask me.

Thanks. I am inheriting this from my wife as we're taking her tank down. I tried to get her to not buy it but she wouldn't listen. The last month or so it's been under only 110W of compact fluorescent light (55g tank). I realize that is insufficient.

In the new 50g tank I am moving it to it will have twice that light (220W of 10K CP). If I keep it near the light do you think it will have a chance?

Thats not a BTA?

Definatly not a LTA possibly a Sebae not positive though cant see the base.

My guess is M. Doreensis, hard to say without seeing the base and under the top. Doesnt the A. Sebae usually have blue tips?

 

[Amphiprion]

Looks like Entacmaea quadricolor (BTA) more than anything. Try to get a shot of the column so that we can get a more positive ID.

Thats a BTA, the oral disk is to visible for it to be an LTA.

Im leaning towards BTA.

Yes, sebaes have purple/blue tips, so we can rule that out

Thanks guys, for the responses.

At the moment I can't get any pictures of the base really. The anemone has moved since that picture was taken some weeks back and is on that rock in such a way that it's hard to get pictures of the base.

I will try to get some updated photos here in a day or two and post them again. I tend to side with the bubble tip ID just because when I moved it into the tank that it's in now the tentacles shortened substantially (due to stress of the move I think) and were much squatter in appearance and more "bubbly" if that makes sense.

i'd say BTA..
