BTA health or not

[Tactical Reefkeeping]

I just got a bubble tip yesterday and I just got into the hobby so it would be nice if any one can tell me if it is healthy or not thanks.

Not sure how happy it is, looks kinda blue to me. Is at anchored to anything? It’s open and inflated so I assume it’s stuck to the glass or hidden rock? Also is that a power head it’s right next to?

 

[Tactical Reefkeeping]

Um right now it is on the sand and it is open

Can you post a pic taken under white lights?

 

[Tactical Reefkeeping]

Yeah this is what it looks like under white lights.

 

[EeyoreIsMySpiritAnimal]

That does not look like a bubble tip to me.

 

[Tactical Reefkeeping]

Well that is what they said at the store and to me it looks like one blwhat do you think it looks like

In most cases, a "white" anemone is an unhealthy one.
Anemones often don't do well on new/beginner tanks.

It looks like a sick anemone that you should return to the store.

Just Google "white anemone reef tank" and you'll find all kinds of info

Did they sell you it bleached? If so, get a refund.

No it just must be the camera because it is green it is supposed to be a green bubble tip anemone

Lighting is still not great but looks like an unhappy Sabae to me.

Take a picture with white light... Shine a flashlight on the nem if needed.
