It is a type of polyp, not aiptasia

does it have a green center when you are only running your actinics?

I have one too - a hitch hiker, it now has another head and it has eaten my shrimp and a fish

been wondering the same thing myself.

What you have there is a Brwon Polyop they are softies...

not aptasia for sure, but it maybe a rock anemone. how big is it? does it move on the rock or do it stay in the exact same place?

thanks thats what I thought but I wanted to be sure. It dosent move

 

[Paintbug]

since it doesnt move its a button polyp like Z_rivers said. they will spread over time.
