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?

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.

Just as a further note. I can tell you right now with a near 100% certainty it is not Heteractis crispa based entirely on your first and second photos. The verrucae on a H. crispa are so prominent that the column looks like raw, unskinned, chicken. Plus, the shape of the pedal disk is wrong, plus the way it's sitting just isn't quite right.

I think I shall pass on involving myself in the RC thread. Sorry.

No, I am aware.. I am just going by everything I have been told and everything I have read. I guess it's all coming down to a shot under the disk.. ( I don't know the proper name sorry ) .. Only reason I ruled out BTA was because the previous owner had the anemone with a maroon clown. A BTA is a natural host to a Maroon , correct? I guess still not good enough to narrow it down, you're right Tony.

Here is the thread for anyone interested...
