I have three anemones that came in on our LR. Two are closed, but I got a pic of the one opened. Any clue as to what it is and is it harmful to my tank. Hope the pic is clear enough. It's the best I could do. Thanks.
 
The pic is not clear enough for a proper ID but your statement below might suggest possibley a BTA. Do a google image search for Entacmaea quadricolor and see what you come up with.

This thing is green with tan bubble tip tentacles

I would keep trying for a clearer pic if you draw a blank.

mystery anemone

I took a couple more pics, I hope are better. I googled entacmaea quadricolor and the colors are the opposite. Tan/purple with green tentacles. Let me know if you can identify it for me. Thanks
