I have an Aquamedic turboflotor, and I noticed an aptasia looking "thing" attached to where the intake is. During a water change, I used a piece of paper towel, and tried to pick at it and clean off the area of the protein skimmer. A couple days later..it was back! So I used something and poked at it, and it slowly retracted into the intake area. 
 
I will try and snap a picture of it tonight and post it. I just didnt know if Aptasia can do that (I'm still kinda new to the hobby) 
 
Thanks all

 Hey.  I've had aptasia in my live rock & it's super easy to get rid of, IF you can easily remove the rock or whatever it's on.  Take it out, squirt a drop of lemon juice on it and stick it back in!  I've been told that you can squirt a drop right into it's mouth when it's in the tank, but I haven't chanced that as of yet...
