Huy Guys,

Can someone tell me what this is?
Is it good or bad for Reefs?

I can't tell if that's a paly or aiptasia.

Does it look like that?

Nope, it does not look like that example. This one is dime-size, with purple center and what appears to be a double row of green tentacles.

does it look like this? Sort of looks like a majano anemone

yeah, I was going to say majano too...

if it is, you can kill it the same way as aiptasia, but IME you have to "feed" them a bit more of the product than aiptasias

Hey Guys,

Thanks for the information. I believe that this animal is not some form of zoo/palys, so I have to assume that it may be a 'majano'. I have relocated it to a q-tank for better pictures.
