Hi Sarah,

It looks like a palythoa zoo. Not Aptasia. :)

Looks to me like Mojano or Aptasia, either way blast it with some kalkwasser and hot water:twised:

Look like a Mojano anemone to me.

Im voting palythoa,
But a larger Pic whould make it easier to confirm.

It's not a mojano or aptasia. But if you feel it's not reef friendly do what you must. I have seen both first hand and can tell you it's niether. Mojano's have much thicker digit fingers. Although it might be a type of anemonie good or bad is hard to say without actually seeing it first hand. I have a wild colony of Palythoa's that look exactly like that but are much greener and of course reef safe.

HTH.
