Looks like torch coral but I don't know too much about anemones. 2nd is a blasto merletti

Ps. Yes. They have a massive aiptasia problem lol
But I agree with the IDs so far

Yes that would be my bet.
And blasto for the second.

Is the blasto a good price for £30 and would it be safe to buy from a tank with that much aiptasia

 

[ahiggins]

Price is great for that many heads. 3-4 heads will go for $25-40.
You can deal with aiptasia for that price

Would it be worth putting in my qt tank fora week or so

 

[ahiggins]

You could. I wouldn't medicate or anything. Put it in there and see if you have any aiptasia that come out. Super glue what you find then you can add it to your tank

You're very welcome. I've freaked out way worse and people here helped out quickly
I've never had Duncan's so probably not the best person for questions specific to them.

 

[chubbyhubby]

Ok
