Looks kind of like aiptasia from that photo,but it`s a little blurry.

Looks like a hidden cup coral, phyllangia or tubastrea or cladacora genus.

Definitely not an Aptaisa anemone for those of you who are paranoid. It has a calcium carbonate skeleton, the Aptaisia are anemones, and don't.

Definetly not aptasia

You guys are paranoid, and by saying things like that you can cause people to kill something beautiful they may want to keep.

well i apologize for any paranoia i may have caused by misidentifying this pic. i was only giving my opinion, which has been known to be wrong at times. guess i've still got a lot to learn about IDing things yet.

Again i sincerely apologize.
