what exactly makes this a "sunburst" as opposed to a standard RBTA? Perhaps I am just not seeing it.

Its a name given to this anemone from the original guys that had it. Heck almost everything has its own name now a days! Its probably a morph of an RBTA but its coloring is what makes it unique.

I has different colors, but I don't see anything amazing about it.
The only amazing thing about it is how people keep trying to hype it. Good luck with it.

Nice color indeed, I saw some on Atlantis Aquarium not too long ago for $300 a piece. What a shame though that most of these wild caught nems come into Los Angeles and usually fetch no more than 10 to 20 dollars. By the time the wholesale people get done with them and then the stores create some wonderful name like "sunburst Anemone" somehow the nem is now worth hundreds of dollars; then all the hype begins on the boards and wow now everyone will go to great lengths to obtain them. Good luck with it
