Is this a crispa or malu?

[rharlow]

I'm looking for a Sebae Anemone, but one that is a Heteractis crispa for True Percs. Unfortunately Heteractis malu's are also called Sebae. I found this one one online at a respectable place, but they don't know. Does anyone have a good idea of which one this is. Thanks

Chip, I've had an H.crispa for about 7 years. That doesn't look like one to me, but they can be from different areas. look here at WWM and see what you think.

They don't have any pics of H. malu though.

Here's a pic of mine to compare.

Mine looks like Pat's and I think its a Crispa.

One of them likes high light/ flow and likes to be up in the rocks. The other likes to be down and plant its foot in the sand. I'm pretty sure the crispa likes the light/flow/rocks. Mine is way up high under a 250DE
