I picked this anemone up about a week ago, it was labelled as a condy, but not 100% sure it is? Was wondering if it could be a Crispa?

It has beautiful turquoise tentacles tipped navy and then with a red dot a the very tip. It’s got a small greyish foot is small for the tentacle size and it does not seem capable of contracting its tentacles totally into the foot. It’s got a very strong sting making my fingers or hand tingle and is like Velcro to the touch. It’s been very well behaved and stayed exactly where I placed it.

What species do you think it is?

Thanks everyone, I was also secretly worried it was a snakelock as it’s remarkably similar! Lol
