Is this anemones or not? Thanks.
It came with leather coral bought several weeks ago. It splitted into two and now three.

Splitted (one on the red finger coral and one at the back side of the rock)

Now three (please note the middle one was upside-down)

I'll take a chance and say, yes they are an anemone. I actually have what appears to be the exact same nems in my tank. I have had them for years and they don't seem to bother anything even though they do move around a far amount. Mine have taken on a nice green and gray color and they don't get much bigger than 1.25". They can get very feathery looking when fully expanded

Thanks :beer: Would you share some pic of yours? :inlove:
Mine is white and around 1cm. Yes, the tentacle look very feathery.
However, it reproduce itself too fast :hmm2:


Look like me to small shoots of Anthelia, another soft coral. Fast grower, but can take over tank really quickly. Not anemones. Anyone agree?
Like these? http://www.bluezooaquatics.com/productDetail.asp?did=3&pid=1552&cid=303
Thanks :beer:
But I think it is not Anthelia. They can move around like an anemone. You can also check the bottom (foot) in the 2nd pic with the middle one turned upside down.
Btw, I have Blue Anthelia too. :)
