Red Rose BTA versus True Red Rose BTA

[mouserusker]

Nice RBTA's.

And a big +1 for liveaquaria.com (and drsfostersmith.com, for that matter). Great selection, WYSIWYG, and incredible customer service. My LFS is an hour away, so shipping costs are essentially neutralized by not having to put $40 in fuel in my vehicle to drive to the not-so-LFS.

Actinics only:

IMO, sometimes "red" BTA's look brown, and I tend to favor "plain" green BTA's. I love how they flouresce under the actinics.

lobsterotomy, I really like how the base of the tentacles and mouth area of your RBTA seems to glow and backlight the bubble tentacle tips.

I purchased one from LiveAquaria.com, (divers den) very nice, great color and healthy. Would not hesitate to order again. Photos of actual anemones for sale. Their stock changes daily. I am in love with the roses w/white speckles. I'd buy one but I have way too many right now. A little pricey but excellent livestock and unsurpassed customer service, can't say enough about how accomidating they are, I rate them superb along with Pacific East Aquaculture, some mighty fine folks at both of these stores.

Yep, mine have a few white specs in the tentacles and white markings around the base of the tentacles. There are the normal white lines around the mouth too. Here is a picture of two clones of the other one that are right next to each other.

lol, yours looks just like mine. It has some white specks. Never seen the bubble tips go away for the past 2 yrs. and I never fed it either
