That is not a bubble tip anemone, that is a large Majano pest anemone.

Hmm, that sounds bad. I'll remove the pest later today then. Thanks Myka.
Also, thank you to all who responded.

Dont remove it, do a test first. try and touch it with your figure, if it retracts fast and almost disappear's then it could be a majano. Try to get a little better pic before you get rid of it.

Looks a bit like a mojano by try grizz's test. I had some really sweet mojanos on my rock that looked like mini BTAs so I left them. And they were my favorites! As long as they stayed relegated to their little rock and played nice with others they could stay; if one violated house rules it got the flush.

I vote keep it .

I agree, that does not at all look like any pest anemone I have ever seen. Don't remove or destroy it without more evidence. It looks like a bubble tip to me.

I did a quick googling on Majano pest anemone picture and this is what I got that is pretty close to what I have in the tank.

I'll do the test that the Grizz has suggested later when I get home but for now I think Myka is right. Either way, I'll proceed with caution. It does look quite nice to be thrown into the garbage can

the only anemones i want in my tank are the ones i buy and purposely put there the rest i can do without.regardless of how nice it is majanos reproduce really fast and pack a powerfull sting.green bubble tips are as common as clowns and especially the green ones so not something extra ordinary that i couldnt bring my self to toss or give away if i happened to find one plus they 2 split constantly

im starting to lean towards majano as well, it looks huge in the pic but the more you look at it closely the more it looks like a majano.

some one gave this to you or it was on a piece of rock??
