Anemone hitchhiker ID

[Slick Fork]

Hi there,

So I've been setting up my new 75 gallon (tank thread will start soon) and one of the new pieces of rock has some kind of anemone on it. I got the Rock from Gold's last week and didn't think to ask where it came from.

Here's a shot of the anemone, it isn't really fully out yet but this is the best I've seen it so far.


Any thoughts on what it might be?

Looks like a Rock Flower... have you tried to feed it? It should invert...

[Slick Fork]

Haven't tried feeding it yet. Not sure what you mean when you say it'll invert... other than aptasia this is my first anemone

[CM125]

It will turn into a bubble, and suck in all its tentacles...

if it's a rock flower, you lucked out, especially a red one. Do feed it with small pieces of mysis shrimp or even brine shrimp and if it's happy, it will grow beautifully to 4-5" diameter. Good luck!
