Does this look like a regular rbta or is it something else ?

I had one that was not bright red but was a RBTA. They come in all shades of red and some do not bubble up but are still RBTA. This one does look a little brown but I still this it is a RBTA.
 
Just curious as to what an "rbta" is??? Are you all referring to a rainbow or a rose bubble tip nem?

As to what yours is, it's all about your perspective.....

I have a nem tank, and have been collecting bta's for a little I while now. I have literally bought a couple dozen different ones. At first I was looking at the "high end" bta's and almost got caught up in all of that hype. There are local shops around central Florida that carry nice bta's that range from $40 - $180. I personally don't buy the "high end" ones because I can find really nice no name ones for a fraction of the price. Some people just slap a name on it, take a nice pic, and sell it for outrageous prices, IMO. Some people just chase a name and are willing to pay outrageous prices for them, IMO.

So, your perspective of your bta is what really matters, IMO. Do you like it? Then that's what matters. If you are looking to sell clones, then pay the high price for one of the "high end" bta's, and then you will probably find someone to pay the high price for one of the clones.

Here is a $55 bta that I picked up locally. Is it a "regular bta"? Yeppers.... With a regular price tag and awesome color, IMO :)
