Looks like a LTA to me. We use to have a green one like yours.

How exactly do you tell the difference?

General shape in pic two points to LTA imo. Easiest way to be certain is to check for verrucae. If it has white verrucae it's an LTA, no verrucae its a Condy.

How exactly do you tell the difference?

Red foot, translucent dots on column, looks to be LTA from seeing just tentacles

These are the dots you mention yes?

 

[Bob Loblaw]

The “dots” are called verrucae and yes, they are shown in the latest pic

Yes, not sure if everyone knows what verracue is exactly, but that is it, and yes, that is a perfect ID shot confirming LTA(M. doreensis)
