I was diving Day Island North Wall and came across this Anemone.
It was one of the largest I have seen.

I am thinking its a White-Spotted Anemone but I am not sure.
It does have the Painted Greenling companion.

Help.

Snakelock Anemone?
 
Columbia Sand Anemone, Urticina columbiana, would be my answer. It has the big bumpy spots. I think the white-spotted is more spotty, and less bumpy.

Nice picture, by the way.
