Just a not so common bubble tip anemone. They're out there but I haven't seen any like that locally, liveaquaria or bluezoo had some like that awhile back. worth a try.

They are really cool. I don't want to buy one however if they are dyed. I was under the impression that if an anemone is any color other than a variety of white then it was dyed.

No it is not dyed. Red is just alot more common in bubble tips.
Kylebeano
reefhotspot has some nice green ones available

White means it's bleached and on the edge of dying, as in ceasing to exist.

I believe you are talking about Sebae anemones.

Yes, I read about the Sebae and assumed it of all anemones.

It is good to know they are not dyed, I will be purchasing one soon smile.gif

Thanks for the pic Caps, it makes me want one even more.
