Is this sunburst bleached?

[Dawneme]

Hi so, idk much about anemones other than magnifica, my lfs ordered me sunburst bta and this is how it looked

It kinda looks bleached idk, he says its because he didnt use any blue light when he took this pic, it was under sunlight, he also said the nem just arrived at their place

This is how it supposed to look like when its under the blue light, he said

Are you going to check it out? I have had some anemone issues but never bleaching. Where did they order from?

A "sunburst BTA" is a blanket term that can be applied to any BTA that has orange or yellow. I think you should specifically ask for a Colorado Sunburst or Chicago Sunburst, or you might get stuck with a BTA with just a hint or orange or yellow, and it will most likely end up being a normal rainbow BTA.

The photos above look to be bleached red or rainbow BTAs, but I would not buy either assuming that they're sunbursts.

This was the update on the nem from my lfs, i told my lfs to order me bta with not green as the dominant color, but nothing super fancy

It's not a sunburst, but if you're happy with the color and price, go for it! It's a beautiful BTA.
