More information:

Orange/red fluorescing. The tentacles are usually a dull brown, but this anemone is partially bleached and has lost most of the endosymbiotic zooxanthellae, which results in the pretty colour, but does the anemone not much good, since it is dependant on the assimilation products of the zooxanthellae as its major food source.
