Monstrousity in the making

The new rose bubble-tip anemone (RBTA)!! Now, this specimen has really spectacular colouration, and the bubbly formation of its tentacles are very lovely. My old RBTA has somehow lost the tendency to form bulb-shaped tentacle tips, but that's normal for some varieties. Look closely, you can see the commensal anemone crab. There's a pair of them, actually. These feed on zooplankton. Greenish polyp above is Anemonia sp., quite a pest in my aquarium but lovely to look at. Bottom right is a royal blue Rhodactys sp. mushroom coral, which I bought at a great deal from Henry's.
