Identify my anemone

Sorry new to site here's my anemone
image.jpg
 
What color is the column? Are there little raised white bumps on the column?
 
Need to see the underside of the oral disc to be 100% sure, however I fairly certain it is a bleached M. doreensis (( LTA )). Given the proper conditions it can make a recovery.

What size tank?
What lights?
How long has your tank been set up?
What are your current water parameters --- with numbers please.


Couple pictures from about 10 years ago,

Started like this,

A few months later,

Tank size 200 litres
Tank has been running year & half
Lighting TMC ilumenair 900

I've had the anemone for 3 months I'll take a better picture the one above
was taken under dusk setting which doesn't really show it's colour.
I'll post parameters later after work

Thanks for your responses I appreciate it.
 
But you can tell what color the column is/base and whether there are white raised bumps on the base? Those facts alone help narrow down type.
 
I currently have 2 common clowns but was thinking of trading them for 2 clarkii clowns
Would that improve my anemones chances if it decides to host either or both of them.
 
I am still thinking that it is an M. doreensis, more so with the newest pictures.

At this point I wouldn't worry about clowns being hosted by it --- need to make sure that it recovers from being bleached first.

Is that lighting LED?

How deep is your sandbed?

What are your water parameters?
