I went out of town today and visited the lfs there. They had a really pretty anemone that I thought was a rose, but the guy told me it was a black widow. What is the difference?
Here is a picture when it was still on the pvc

This is after it was in the tank for an hour or so.

I assume a black widow is just a fancy name someone tagged it with and it should receive the same care as my green bta but just wanted to make sure.
Thanks.
 
No different care as your green one.
The only difference between a rose and black widow is the “webbing” it has on the oral disk
