Just received my divers den order, anemone looks great but I’m not to sure if they mislabeled it by chance. I ordered a heteractis malu but to me it almost looks like an LTA. I have a green LTA in the tank next to it and they both have the same spots on the underside of the oral disc and an orangish pedal foot, only difference is the color of the tentacles. Any anemone experts who can chime in? I’ve kept many different anemones just not malus yet so I wasn’t sure if they just resemble LTA’s possibly

Can you get a photo of the mouth and front? It does look maluish. Does it have radial lines on the front?

Not seeing any radial lines and this is the best I could I get of the mouth
