That is a BTA.
You got them in a few varieties, most common one is the RBTA a Rose.
The two high end BTA's you will see is the Inferno or the Sunburst both of them are BTA's that morph into a super nice color in captivity.
The market is seeing more of the nice BTA's now days but not always they hold there color.
 
This is a "bubble tip anemone" Entacmaea quadricolor. They can be found (or can develop into) just about any color imaginable. So yes this is a bubble tip, but not quite orange.
 
under blues he's green in middle and bright orange near ends he split while small so the post was he wasnt a bubble tip i thought he was but i have a 12" gbta that still hasnt split this orange one was only 2-3 inches and he split
 
Some will split readily and some will never split. I've had many anemones in the same system where one will just never split while some do.

He's a rainbow bta
