Anyone? This hitchhiked in some rubble.
 
The picture's too bit blurry. Can you post a picture where you can see its center? From the picture, it looks like it may have a skeleton. If it does, it isn't an anemone. Look up corallimorphs in your search engine and see if you see any close matches.
 
Thats the best pic I can get the way it's positioned.

It looks nothing like a ball anemone. It's transperant (almost like bleached) with an orange ring around the top kinda like a zoanthid. However it has tentacles all over it's top much like a condylactus but they're more stubby. He's .25 inches in diameter.

I did look through chuck's addiction's hitchhiker list on anemones and it doesn't look like any of them except the "Unknown tube anemone" species half way down the page. http://chucksaddiction.com/hitchanemone.html
