My first impression is bta. Does it have white lines around its mouth?
 
prob a bta but would need to see it when it is open

Here’s that mouth! Thanks for the help all!
 
im going bta, i have some that do not have any striping on the mouth
 
I work at a fish store and thats a Bubble tip 100%
 
Here it is the morning after it’s first night, I see algae starting to stick to it and there were a good amount on It’s tentacles but it seemed to roll it up into a ball? Will it eat it? I thought they were carnivores. Thanks for letting me know it’s a BTA!!
pS: glad it’s a BTA since I heard they’re the perfect one for the novice reefer! Jaja

That looks like dinos at first glance. Dinos can be very irritating (even deadly) to anemones and coral. Is there slimy snot-like ‘algae’ (dinos are actually bacteria not algae) everywhere? Typically, there are bubbles in it as well.

I wouldn’t say everywhere but I do see some bubbling floating algae sometimes so that sounds like it could match, smh recommendations on the mend?
