My bet is that is an Aptasia that is semi-retracted because its surrounded by zoanthids.

Polyp, Pally, or Aptasia, I would zap it ASAP.

It's not aptasia. And if anyone has pics of their aptasia that are pink or green, I Would love to see it. Brown is what you see first hand In tanks 99% of the time. The 1% I have made up as after doing tank maintenance I have never seen anything but brown so the possibility had to be rare.

Things on google are often photoshopped. Like the corals people buy online then are surprised its different once it arrived.


No offense meant, but it's not aptasia. It definitely is a paly of some sort. If you look at the oral disc it is very obvious.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.
