Bubble tip anemones are all the same species, Entacmaea quadricolor. There are different color/form varieties, just like with some corals, and those are often marketing names, and sometimes, they way they look depends on the lighting they are held under, and how they are photographed.

Don’t seem very bright.
Orange, yellow, green and very red.
Should stand right out.
May just be lighting.

Could be lighting , but appears to be a rainbow BTA - you can see my CSB in middle of my rainbow BTAs - even they look different from one another as well some can be more green or red than others

That said I have heard CSBs normally go through a green phase so it very well could be a csb as well - better pics in white light would help
