So I am new to the hobby even though this is something I have always wanted to do. At the end of july my husband and I took our kids down to surfside beach, tx and san luis pass, tx area. While fishing the intercoastal waterway my kids found a marine hermit and wanted to bring it home. Since I had done this several times as a kid (I was born in Galveston) I didn't think anything of it. My husband and I discussed it and since we had an empty 10 gallon tank and I have had land hermits for the past 3 years (almost 4) I didn't see any point not to. I gathered water from the area to bring home and start the tank with and gathered some rock from where the hermit was found as well. I brought them home and proceeded to set up the tank with what I had. A few days later I went to petco and got some instant ocean saltwater mix and slowly proceeded to add the remaining 4 gallons of needed to finish filling the tank as well as a bag of sand that I got from the saltwater section. I got all of the test needed and proceeded to testing all of my levels and they were great.... so I look in the tank and there it is coming out of one of my live rocks....an anemone. Can someone please help me identify him? My husband also purchased a ocellaris clown to put in the tank for the kids and I am starting on a 66 gallon so they wont be in the 10 gallon much longer. Thanks in advance...
