It looks like a Haitian to me.

I am relatively new to saltwater but I do feel pretty confident in my id.

I'm sure someone with more experience will chime in soon as well.

From what I read it was either that or maybe condy?

Lfs just had pink tipped anemone on tag

The Haitian is a condy (Condylactis sp.).

According to Live Aquaria the Haitian is also known as a pink tip condy.

You're welcome.

I don't believe condy's are very friendly when it comes to anemones though. I don't know a whole lot about anemones but did research some as I thought about maybe getting one in the future. I do know that all anemones need pristine water conditions, a stable tank, and high lighting.

I was actually looking at that thread and just now noticed it was you that posted it.

Again, I'm not very familiar with clowns, besides my own ocellaris clowns. From my little knowledge and just from comparing pictures it does look like a clarkii or maybe a juvenile tomato. The tomato clowns lose strips as they get older, going down to just one I believe. I've been trying to find a better site for more details in identifying clowns.
