I have 3 Haddonis and I’m fairly certain that it’s not a Haddoni. The disc is blue and there is (possible) coloration / streaks on the column. However, the tentacles are not as long. Possible that it’s a baby Gigantea?

What do you guys think?

I'm thinking gig as the base is not an-brown. Haddoni base is usually white-cream white. Is there verracue on the petal? That's the tale

It looks more like a Haddoni to me. Wait a bit until it no longer stressed. The color of the column is difficult to tell since it is contracted. Everything is intensified when the anemone not fully inflated. I recent got a Haddoni, mistakenly send to me as a Gigantea. It is very similar to this one.

I'm leaning towards haddoni as well, though there is a chance that it could be a gig.

Same here but honestly - the more I look at it, the more it's resembling a baby Haddoni, very bright one nonetheless. Oh well...guess now I have 4 Haddonis, which ain't bad.

Why is it so hard to find these unicorns?!$
