ID Help Please??

I can't figure out what this is or where it came from...

I was looking at it last night after the lights went out and it's center opened up and it spit out small tentacles that had little balls on the end!! It almost looked like a torch coral when it was open!!

I have never noticed it open durning the day while the lights are on. WHAT is it??

Thanks, Patrick

When it spit out the tentacles, the base kinda buches up a little bit and then it spits out tentacles that are around 1/2 in long that have little balls on the end of them... bizzare. I tried to get a pic at night with the "red" light but my camera won't do it.......

Tentacles with balls at the end sounds like a ball anemone or strawberry anemone to me.

Thanks, according to the article it sounds like a perfect match. It doesn't seem to be growing that quickly so I guess I don't need to worry about it too much at this point...

Thanks again.
