Hi. I saw this guy at a LFS and he was completely bleached out and awful looking. I asked about it and the guy called it a "purple bubble tip anemone" and the price was cheap enough for me to consider it a rescue mission. Anyway, could someone knowledgeable help me identify this Lil critter?

it's just now starting to come out more and become colored, I have fed it every other day and it gets "gooey" but I've never seen a tip bubble up.

best I could get,tentacles being what they are...
Hard to see mouth , if you can see it a BTA has the white lines near the mouth as you can see in my pic. For now I am going with a condy anemone due to the shape of tentacles

Yeah, I was thinking condy, they won't host anything really will they?
