Found one online that is being labeled as a pacific white tipped BTA, polyp morph looks similar and with white tips. @Eagle_Steve don't the striations around the mouth a characteristic of only bubble tips?

The striations would help to ID if we knew the OPs had them. It would eliminate a mag from the mix, but some sebae also have striations on the oral disk.Found one online that is being labeled as a pacific white tipped BTA, polyp morph looks similar and with white tips. @Eagle_Steve don't the striations around the mouth a characteristic of only bubble tips?
dang literally saw it’s foot today! If I see it again I’ll snap another pic.I used to have one exaxtly like that. It was a purplish/green (green was when lights were close to 10,000k and purple was when lights were closer to 20,000k and if all blue led bars were on, it kind of looked almost black) with very white tips. it was a BTA and acted just like most GBTA do, (in regards to usually lower light in a tank than an RBTA would typically go to). Sadly, it decided to move, rolled into my neon green haddoni (the massive one) and the haddoni ate it.
With that said, If a pic of the mouth and foot could be obtained, I could tell you for sure if it is a bta. Sometimes sebae come in looking like this and even bubble up a little at the tips. Not common though and the fact that the nem is in the rocks and not at the sand steers me away from even thinking of it being Sebae. I have even seen baby mags look like this, so that is even a possibility, but I doubt it.
Canada Corals which from my understanding is pretty reputable for corals.Where did you get it from? Almost looks like some of the torches out there. Those tips look too bright under the blues to be bleached in my opinion. Typically under blues a bleached specimen will just be drowned out by the blues, this almost seems like the tips are fluorescing. They might also be calling the tips white but more likely they are some other color that is just really light in color.
Thankfully it’s pretty soft with it, but I’m definitely worried about over loving in the future when the other clown joins the one hosting.This is why I’m scared to add nice euphyllia to my tank, those darn clownfish!!!
So true, my clowns are very rough lovers… they love things to death unfortunately!The heart wants what the heart wants.
Who knows ???As the title states my clownfish has been hosting my hammer, only got a week ish. I have an anemone and my clown hasn’t seemed to even care about it. Will it eventually notice the anemone and move to it? Or will it stay at the hammer?
Just be glad something other than a top corner of your tank isn’t the host spot for yours. Mine has chosen a corner and they like to splash water all over the rim. Currently have 9 nems all around 5 inches away from the spot they chose.As the title states my clownfish has been hosting my hammer, only got a week ish.

Truth. It’s like you going over to someone’s house who is throwing a party then saying that you are hosting the party because you are there. Unless it’s a disease…then they host.Clowns don’t host
