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

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.
