This rf nem was saved a year or so ago from a crashing tank; has a unique bubbly texture I haven’t seen on any other rf nem. Some have suggested the trauma cause the it to bounce. I’ve never heard of a bounce rf nem. is the texture here considered a bounce?

Just a rfa....seen some before
 
The bubbles certainly aren't the norm but they are around. They are rare enough I'd pay a couple extra bucks for one. :)
 
I don't think it's a good thing when anemones show features of a bounce mushroom. Oftentimes they expand like that as a feeding response. If they remain that way I would consider it an ailment instead of a desirable characteristic. :(
 
Thanks for all the feedback- I don’t believe it’s a bounce and, as I hope the pictures convey, the nem is in fine health. The tank is full of rf nems and at least a few are spawning as I’ve got babies on rocks & sand. Hopefully my green rescue is one of the culprits.
