[fumanchu88]

i bought this big boy from my LFS and they said it was a long tentacle anomone but I looked at the ones SWF are selling and they look nothing alike could someone let me know what it is?It is extremely large prob a foot across(wide open its foot is at least 5 inches across).

no one can identify?

Looks like it could be an LTA

 

[fumanchu88]

but the tentacles are all spiraly with a stripe on them

 

[fumanchu88]

do you think it's just a sickly anomone?

 

[fumanchu88]

anyone else have a thought about these two pictures and if i have a long tantacle anomone?

what color is the foot?

It is, IMO, a Macrodactyla doreensis = LTA.

I would say LTA also but it also looks like a condy with its foot the Condylactis gigantea can get that large but the twists in the tenticals is what is throwing me off normally they dont have curls in them.
