Anenome?
 Some anenomes get stressed out during shipping and handling. I had an anenome that looked like yours and after a few months it got brown with green tips. It got its symbiotic algea back and grew into a healthy anemone.... Good Luck and start feeding red salmon!!!!!

IMO, it was dyed, just not super recently. It is already started to bleach and expel some of the dye. Yellow is a common (( along with pink to a lesser extent )) dye color used on H. Crispas.

Wait, what do you mean feeding red salmon? I was told when I fed frozed food the clowns would take carry food to it's mouth. It's already being hosted by a pair of saddleback maroons.

Yes, it was dyed. It has been a while - the dye is about half gone. It is completely bleached. It's natural color is not yellow or even yellowish. When bleached it is white. When healthy it is a brownish-tan.
