Can Anyone ID my Anemone?

[One_Divided]

I've had it for about 4 months now and it hasn't done any harm.. hmm.. what do you guys think? I don't want to get rid of it!

It has moved around a lot and never left any clones behind or anything, so I don't see it being much of a threat to my reef.

Found this on the net while looking for sample output of good digital cameras (I'm in the market for one. Suggestions anyone? 3-4 Megapixels).

This anemone looks the same as yours. The owner labelled it as a Ritteri Anemone.

3 to 4 megapixels....Nikon 995, Nikon 4000 or Olympus C3040.

opps...forgot to tell you why they are good.

Nikon 9xx series have an awesome Macro lens...good for those super closeup shots. I think the minimum focus size is something like 1 inch square. Lots of features...picture quality is not the absolute best...but it is pretty good.

Olympus...well they are good too. The good sony ones are too expensive...the cheap ones just suck.

Do you really need 3 to 4 megapixels ? If you are just posting images...then 1.3 is all you really need.

Thanks for the tip on the Nikon 9xx series. It looks like the best of the bunch. Too bad there's isn't any audio for movie recording. That's the only feature that I wished it would have that it doesn't already have.

I only want the 3 Megapixel capability for the odd time that I want to print large photos. I want to make my analog camera obsolete.

Hate to jump in here like this, but since no-one else has already pointed it out, I'm going to ...

Sam W, that picture you posted is not a ritteri (Heteractis magnifica). The anemone shown is Entacmea quadricolor, bubble-tip anemone.
