What type of Anemone is this?

Splitcane · 08/22/2021, 06:08 PM

It's not the best pic but hopefully someone can identify this anemone. It's bigger than it looks. I moved away some of the substrate to get a look at the stalk and I was surprised how big it was. This thing must have come in on some rock or something and was probably very small. I never noticed it until a about a month ago. I though I saw it way in the back but it was hard to tell. Then the other day, it showed up out front. At least it's not Aptasia..thankfully. I also I didn't purchase it...well, I guess I did, I just didn't know it. Any ideas?

Can you get a picture from above? Looks like it could be a type of LTA.

The stripes on the oral disk and the way it's foot is buried makes me think LTA.
