What are we thinking: Crispa or Malu?

[The new fish on the block]

Howdy fellow nem nerds,

I recently special ordered a Radianthus (formerly Heteractis) Crispa for a pair of Bluestripe clowns I should be getting in January.

Unfortunately it came in very small, and while I still think it is a Crispa, I would like some second opinions.

It seems to have appreciated the piece of dry rock I put in with it which is a good sign, but I keep second guessing my ID.

It most closely resembles a Heteractis Crispa that needs some TLC. If so, the tentacles will get much longer as it recovers.

Good to hear, thanks for the second opinion!

Agree, it's a H. crispa.

That’s code for sebae anemone right?

Yep! It’s just the different species of “sebae” anemones.

Good deal! Thanks for your reply!
