Tony,

I put the anemone in on a high point in the tank receiving a very moderate flow. I put its foot inbetween a nice little crack that I thought it would suck into. Sure enough.. hasn't moved one inch. I put it in last night around 730. I took the picture at 3 30 today.

Dumb question.. is the pedal disk.. the foot? I know it's a white colour, if that helps at all. I can try to get pictures of it.

Whatever species it is, it looks robust and healthy

Thanks Bev.

I will try posting this in the anemone/clownfish forum on RC and see what happens. Sorry I never got a chance to take a picture of it's foot. But like I said, it is white coloured.

If ice cream is white would that be enough to know it's flavour?

Ya Scott why dont you give the anemone a taste? That might give it away!

I have to say I do not agree with the assesments over there. "I have completely ruled out BTA" ? What a joke. And I am sorry but the methodologies being used are complete fallacies. Association of clownfish species is a completely irrelevant ID'ing tool when in captivity. Perhaps it can help narrow down choices when ID'ing a specimen in the wild, but not in captivity.
