I've had several spawning incidents in both of my tanks, but never seen any results until now.
#1 behind monti. Red with white stripes. 99% sure this is a RFA.

#2 is very tough to see in the picture. Grey with white stripes. Possibly a green mouth. Maybe another species? Frilled? Maybe ball anemone?
To frilly to be aptasia, I think.

Is there a variant of aptasia with shorter, lumpy, white tentacles? I've never seen one.
The only aptasia I've ever seen in person more closely resembles a tube anemone.

This is a good thread to see babies pictured, I watch this other thread - go to #53 area to see TINY babies before they start getting color:

Thank you!
Yes, #2 looks exactly like the ones pictured in post #37

if you found those, then you probably have others you haven't yet found

I'm hoping to be lucky enough one day I get babies, too

Congratulations!!
 
You're right. Main lights went off and I spotted another one under actinic.
 
No, the tentacles are pointed. Majanos have bulbous tips and usually a green tint to them
 
I cant tell on the first picture but I had baby rfa that looked just like picture 2. You will be surprised how many of them you will notice now that you are looking for them
