Didn't say you were forcing anyone Scott. I just said I choose to pass. I have my reasons but I would prefer not to get into that publicly over here.
In short:
- Entacmaea quadricolor -- possibly, although possibly not. Not enough info.
- Heteractis magnifica -- although unlikely, still possible. Not enough info.
- Heteractis crispa -- very unlikely. I think there's enough info to accept this claim.
The difficulty here is that there are traits that are common to all 3 (and even other species we haven't even mentioned yet). Some traits can be shared between species. I.e., just because it resembles one thing, doesn't automatically make it so. If that were really true, then this species is all 3. Well, we know that can't be the case. So which is it? The bottom line is that there is not enough info at this time to pass a qualified judgment.
Whatever it is, enjoy it, and please be more careful with this one.
