Beautiful nem!

Very pretty. I am inclined to think though the stark white will turn a cream color as the anemone grows and acclimates.

I have a blue tip saebae that looked exactly like yours when I first brought it home. Now after 4 months, it has changed completely purple. Loves to move around the top shelf of my rock structure

I've heard the same - I attempted to "save" a Seabae from a LFS years ago (Nowadays I never support "saving" critters from any petstore. A sale is a sale to business and doesn't change behaviors if revenue is produced..). My Seabae was completely bleached out, a gaping mouth, and bulb foot(Triple threat!). The color came back(tanish/cream) but the damaged foot was the nail in the coffin.
UTEP - Did it attached to that rock? If so, I'm jealous! I understand getting a seabae to attach and recover during acclimation is one of the rougher barriers to keeping this species. Please post pictures as time passes - looks like you got a good one! Awesome!

You have a bleached H. crispa. The tentacle length is a good sign that it hasn't started to consume itself for energy.
What size tank?
What lights do you have?
Are you acclimating it to your lights?

Are theses nems hard to keep?
Everything I read online was pointing to a difficult anemone to take care of. I think it has to do with great water quality and some great lights. I feed it once a week. It's about 10in in diameter now. Love it!
