I picked up this little bubble tip at a frag swap. I'm super hyped on the colors, and I was wondering if there was a trade name for this variety.

Also does anyone know if the white spots are normal? It otherwise seems healthy and ate some mysis today.

This is now named 'Ivan'. Meet your new named anemone. Ivan. I'll have papers drawn up and sent to your office.

I feel like orange with green tips is less common, but I agree that more pictures with more white light would be helpful before making any assumptions.

I took some more pictures with the whites turned up and the blues turned down. Its still kind of shaded by an archway so if it moves I may be able to get some better photos later.

IMHO, Ivan looks like a green bubble tip (Entacmaea quadricolor) anemone.
Rainbow bubble tip. if you’re looking for a fancy name choose one

Sweet, maybe it we become more clear once Ivan gets a little bigger. Regardless I hope once day he will host my clowns.

"Ivan" is a bit small for me to be sure on this ID, but you might want to look up "warp drive bubble tip anemone" for fun.
