Looks like a crispa to me. It's typical for them to seek out rock crevices to place their foot.

Doesn't have the magenta tips of a H. crisp or malu. The tentacle tips aren't really pointed like a LTA. The way it's sticking out of the rocks and the shape of the tentacles looks like an uninflated BTA to me, but you need to look at the base for sure. White base with prominent verrucae means H. crispa. Brown under the oral disk with white verrucae changing to white on the column and red on the foot would be LTA. Brown, tan, rust, red or pale purple on the base with no visible verrucae would mean its a BTA.
If it is a BTA, it looks pretty healthy based on the density of the tentacles.

Not easy to tell from that picture. If it is a host anemone, I can rule our several host anemones. Not Haddoni, Gigantea or Mertensia, not Magnifica, not Aurora.
Need picture of the column and oral disc to positively ID this anemone.
