anybody know what this is?

[Syco]

I don't know what this is, it looks like a little anemone. It came on this barnacle when I got it. I've had it for about 9 months and it hasn't grown much. Anybody have any ideas?

Anemone would also be my guess. Have you tried to feed it?

It eats mysis and brine when I feed it. It's really pretty, I would love to know what type it is.

go into the lps forum and look at some fungia's. it looks like mine but different colour.

This little guy is only about a 1/2 inch. I does kind of look like a carpet anemone, but I don't think it is. I looked up fungia, but they have a stony skeleton and this guy doesn't. If it retracts you would hardly know it is there. I guess I'll have to wait until it gets bigger to find out what it is, and at the rate it is growing..... that could be a couple of years.
