It is a sinularia... but there is also a long polyp sarcophyton in that picture as well. I will get some more pics here in a few days but this one will have to do for now... it is my newest full tank shot (added a frogspawn, squamosa clam, and a yellow fiji leather). I have three clams in the tank total now: gigas, squamosa, and a derasa (all i need now is a maxima and a crocea to complete the collection). Thanks for the compliments.

Its an Aquacultured Rose Bubble Tip Anemone (RBTA)... they are very hardy and very beautiful. But they can also be difficult to find, especially at the right price

If you can I would find one local. Before i bought this one i ordered one from an online source and it was a GBTA that was dyed red... I have been told and seen that these anemones are captured and dyed very frequently in order to catch that higer $$$. Buy one local and buy one aquacultured... it may take a little bit longer but it is well worth it in the end! Thanks for the compliment!
