What colors do you see? My wife and I are having a debate...

Take a look at this Ritteri Anemone:


What color(s) would you say it is?

I say purple, it blends with the coraline.

I agree with the wife. (I stay out of trouble that way)

The purple coralline may be casting a purplish shadow on the coral.

Kind of looks pinkish purple actually, so I guess your both right...But if your smart, you'll just agree with her and go with pink

Why is brown such a dirty word in this hobby? You've all been brain washed! Sure, there might be some undertones of purple or pink, but when it comes down to it, that's a brown anemone with tan/yellow tips.

I say pink with lime green to yellow tips.

Did you mostly men are color blind and that most who are dont even know it? I am and never knew it till I had a physical for a job. I see all colors it's just hard for me to differentiate between them.

It is not possible to say from this picture as the white balance is way off - in favour of a huge magenta cast.

First get the white balance fixed then one can answer.
