Entacmea quadricolor It’s a bubble, but the solid white color and lighting are strange. Need better pics. No doubt it’s a bubble, bleached ones get transparent though and that looks milky white.

It’s like a light blue white colour in the white light and it has pink tips it’s not transparent so I don’t think it’s bleached but not sure

Do you mean a nickname or what it might be sold as? Where was it purchased from? All “Bubble” Anemones regardless of color or name are the same species. There’s no real system to keep track of names anymore and not everything gets a name. I say go ahead and give it name. Call it the Minneapolis Milkburst, there’s something nice about the alliteration I like about it.
Left would be a green bubble with purple pinkish tips. Right would be a rose bubble that’s bleached and lost some of the symbiotic algae. Something that usually happens in too much light or heat. If it’s put into the correct water quality, it will recover and color should get deeper or or it can change a lot and have colors not even noticeable now. The intensity and the color of the lighting also affect the color too.

I don’t think it’s bleached though I can’t see through it at all even though it might look bleached in the image ther is no space I can see through
