What am I?

I bought this piece of rock for the Dendrophyllia on it, and ended up with this as a bonus prize. Not sure what it is, about the size of a quarter, the green is very bright and glows under the moon light leds, wide open 24/7. TIA

if it never closes I'd guess it was some type of nuisance anemone, or maybe its a hidden camera from big brother :lol:

sorry ryan, but it isn't a hidden camera. it is a common green Palythoa.

looks like the Frag that was at Mikes corals rock and fish in the Cape. Do you mind if I ask how much you paid for it?

Hmmm, something looking very similar is selling on Ebay for $ 25.00 a polyp. Item # 190098091017.

I've had several responses, some say paly some say anemone. And I can't find a really close match anywhere. That one on ebay looks close but it's not as bright and the tentacles are more brownish, whereas mine are purple.
