Anemone ID

[Stretch]

I was on a kalking quest tonight :lol: I was inspecting some rocks found some sort of anemone it's very tiny right now smaller than a the tip of an eraser. So should i kalk it or keep it?

I have something like that in my tank. It only comes out at night and doesn't seem to be growing or spreading. I say keep it and see what happens. You can always kalk it later.

The picture lacks focus, but I would say it is Aiptasia. It is your choice to get rid of it before it spreads, or keep a close eye on it to get a better ID. :eek:

i don't think it is Aiptasia i've seen them before this looks nothing like the ones i've kalked before

Also look towards the end of this article. Seems they are tropical relatives of the strawberry anemone we see in termperate Pacific waters...
