Hey guys, just wondering if this critter is an Aiptasia and if so, is just removing the rock a good way to get rid of it? Thanks.

Always thought they were more dark in hue like a brown or tan color.
 
Yep, aptasia, they can come in many colors.
Removing the rock could work, or using chemicals or natural predators (not always a good idea) can work.
 
Thanks. I only have two that I can see from the same rock. Hopefully they haven’t reproduced yet(though its been in there for months), so i’ll just take the rock out.

That's a biggin, I bet it being happy gave it no reason to multiply like rabbits.
 
If you only have two, you can just cover them up with reef rock putty/cement. I did this and haven't seen another in 3 years. Just make it big enough to cover the whole thing.
