Mag or bubble tip?

[mmmmmmm]

Received a picture from a supplier and was wondering if the anemones were Magnifica anemones as they were labeled to be.

Yes, they appear to be H. Magnifica, but they are very bleached and are likely to have a flat brown base color in person. Just FYI.

We'd need more photos to make a positive ID. Color-wise it could be either a magnifica or BTA.

I lean more towards BTA since some of the tentacles are more bulbous:

Magnifica tend to have skinny tentacles with a rounded tip.

If you can get a top down shot showing the mouth, that would help quite a bit.

I was thinking Mag based on the veruccae. I have never seen those on a BTA.

Oh yes, that's a great observation. I also think the foot looks more like a mag, in terms of its "wrinkles" but I'd really like more photos to be able to provide a definitive answer.
