Default Any ideas what this it?
Anyone have any ideas what this creature is? It was a hitchhiker on a piece of live rock I have in quarantine. Sorry if the pictures are a little fuzzy, they don't do justice to the hooks the little bugger has. Thanks.

I can tell you I have a couple and they are not a mojano and do not seem to do much they only open when lights are out. Someone did tell me as I asked because I could not find it in my books and I have quite a few this was about 10 months ago.

Hmmm, not sure... I would guess some sort of aptaisa? It kinda looks like one inside of a hole.

Personally, I would destroy it!

I'm not 100% sure, but I think Pisces sells them as Flower Anemones.

I have one of those as well. Noticed it a few months ago. Has'nt grown or spread and is the size of a dime. I put kalk paste on everything undesireable but for some reason have left it alone. So just tagging along.
