Fire anemone? Pizza anemone? Looks like it would sting like a mother.

Sort of looks like Heteractis aurora, Beaded anemone to me.

i would look for info on Stichodactyla tapetum. it appears to be a species of mini carpet anemone. gary majchrzak is the one person i know of with the most experience with this species.

What he said^ S tapetum.

 

[Slakker]

Yeah, that's my guess as well...

Is Pizza Anemone a real thing?! LOL

 

[cschweitzer]

Also might want to move that mushroom(blue ric) right in front of it...It's taking that thing over.

And yes, tapetum in my view too.

It does appear to be a morph of S. tapetum. Slakker, Cryptodendrum adhaesivum is commonly referred to as a 'pizza' anemone because of the difference in color along the outside edges.
