I picked up this little bubble tip at a frag swap. I'm super hyped on the colors, and I was wondering if there was a trade name for this variety.

Also does anyone know if the white spots are normal? It otherwise seems healthy and ate some mysis today.

This is now named 'Ivan'. Meet your new named anemone. Ivan. I'll have papers drawn up and sent to your office.

More pictures with good daylight will help clarify specific bubbletip type. Yes the spots are very common on bubbletips, my rainbow bubbletips have lots of spot markings. You can see some spots in the pictures below.

I took some more pictures with the whites turned up and the blues turned down. Its still kind of shaded by an archway so if it moves I may be able to get some better photos later.

I like it. I hope Ivan grows big and strong. I look forward to seeing those papers.

IMHO, Ivan looks like a green bubble tip (Entacmaea quadricolor) anemone.
Rainbow bubble tip. if you’re looking for a fancy name choose one

Sweet, maybe it we become more clear once Ivan gets a little bigger. Regardless I hope once day he will host my clowns.
