This is haddoni, right? Bought this blue haddoni weeks ago and want to make sure I did bought the right anemone. It has a blue foot and I see no spots under. It is still small like maybe 3-4 inches or so and stay anchored on to the rocks. But the tentacles looks bit longer than my red haddoni. Can someone help me identify, please?

Don't see a lot of spots but the blue foot positively ID him as Gigantea
That is why I am so confused about this one. I don’t see any verrucae, then blue foot and a bit longer tentacles than my haddoni.

It is attached to a rock and I can’t take it off. I will just let it move wherever it will be happy. I don’t want to force it to detached from the rock and tear the base or stress.

thanks!
 
It is possible that it is a hybrid. I have seen several (5 or so) Carpets that I think are hybrids. They are often green and beige. I have never seen a blue that I think is a hybrid, but these should be no reason why it should not be blue.
 
I believe Gigantea
 
It is not that I don’t want a gigantea but my concern is it’s current location have a very low water movement. It is on the same spot for few weeks now.

I think I am more stressed than the anemone.
 
A clear pic of the oral disc would help too. I agree it looks like a gig, verracue aren’t always clearly visible. Gigantea have a bit different arrangement of tentacles than haddoni. Usually fewer particularly close to the mouth.
