What is this? I have never seen one of these before? i have about 4 or 5 of them stuck on the front of my glass. It is very small. probably about 2-4mm in diameter. The little tenticle things are almost hair like and they sway in the current. Maybe some kinda anemone?

I have a bunch of them in my clown breeding tank. In the low current when they detach from the glass, they are just like jellyfish.

I HATE them---killed all my baby seahorses once. :(
