Anemone?

[melvis]

Hi all

Spotted this hiding in the LR and as yet have been unable to ID it. Been through all the pics on actiniaria.com and nothing similar. Problem is, I can't get a decent angle on it to see its mouth or column as @Oxylebius suggested in my thread.

Don't think it's majano or aiptasia, but would welcome any other suggestions.
Cheers

It is not an Anemonia manjano. There are 17 species of aiptasia and by the looks of it, it may be one of them, but I will not hazard a guess at id'ing it w/o being able to see its mouth and oral disc. If you would like to do more research on the list below, a couple of these do have a brownish color with white speckles on them.
Aiptasia californica
Aiptasia carnea Andres
Aiptasia diaphana
Aiptasia eruptaurantia
Aiptasia erythrochila
Aiptasia insignis
Aiptasia inula
Aiptasia leiodactyla
Aiptasia mimosa
Aiptasia mutabilis
Aiptasia pallida
Aiptasia parva
Aiptasia prima
Aiptasia pulchella
Aiptasia saxicola
Aiptasia tagetes

What I would do:
It looks like some type of Aiptasia to me.
I'd feed it a bite of AiptastiaX

I thought aptasia was thinner looking?

I could very well be neither manjano or aiptasia - there are soooo many nems out there, w/o a better picture it will be hard to ID it.

I understand that it is in a difficult spot to get a good pic at, how about trying to submerge a mirror and reflect an image in the mirror, then capture the image in the mirror with a pic.
