ID Anemone in live rock

[Nikky.Werr]

Sam, Thank you for your response! It's great to hear that you think the anemone looks well in my aquarium. I hope it is able to thrive. I will start feeding it after lights out, though I had been feeding it at 4-6pm. I have noticed that this anemone is completely open at night, I can even observe its mouth. But during the day it (the mouth structure) becomes less visible. The idea that the outer ring of short tentacle-like structures are used to host zooxanthellae seems pretty spot on; I'd love to hear about your findings in the squash slide so I can better understand this anemone.
Thanks again for the response and please do let me know if you find an ID eventually!
This has helped me immensely.

Hello I thought I'd update this, letting you all know that the anemone is doing great. It eats diced squid, scallops, shrimp that I prepare (living on an island has its benefits, fresh raw seafood all the time). This is a picture of her, like i'd already mentioned she prefers the dark to open up, but this photo is all right.

Nice find! nothing as interesting on my LR. :-(

Heh, beginner's luck maybe? If my LFS had known she was hiding in there, they'd have tried to charge me at least $100 USD. Lol. They sell snails for $10 USD each and sea cucumbers they find on the LR for $50. It's all about the money here.

Here are two new pictures, I was able to trick her by turning on the room lights and keeping the tank ones off. It seems the room lights don't deter her.

I don't know what type it is, but it sure is an interesting specimen.

Sam11909, after I asked for help with ID, answered me on this thread stating that it's a species of warty anemone. I've been treating her as such and she's doing great.
