I picked up a couple of anemones from a local reefer for $20 and they are clearly different. I have to ask if this smaller one that is way brighter is just your run of the mill rbta or if it is actually a higher end sunburst, supernova, etc... Photos were taken under my ATI hybrid and used an orange filter on a few.

Left is rainbow bubble tip (RBTA) and right is green ultra rainbow anemone
 
purple tips indicate they are rainbows. True sunburst & supernovas do not have purple tips
 
Thank you both for the reply. I'm not a collector of BTAs but he wanted me to take 2 more of these for $20. I didn't need that many, but when I got home and saw how bright it was, I wanted to rule it out that these were not high end ones. If there were, I'd be heading back to buy them.
