Hey guy, I was advised to post this here.
So, I woke up today and noticed a small bubble-like thing on my anemone. It’s been a couple hours and I don’t believe it’s moved. This spot was not on my anemone yesterday. What might it be?

I also have 2 clownfish- one is about an inch long and the other is just under an inch.

I can post more pics if you need. Thank you!

id be more worried that it isn't bubbled up and open. Looks a bit unhappy imo. What lights ya have on tank and how old is the tank?

Top right is my nem. They should be extended like that. If that dot is worrisome I'd pluck it off with some tweezers if it'll come off easy

Thanks for your response. I have a FluvalSmar t led light. My light cycle is in-tune to my work schedule which is why the anemone looks closed. I changed the light color to take the pics. It more open now (7:30pm my time)
Tank is new just over one month. Anemone is newer- 2 weeks. I knew of the risks of getting the little guy but the aquatic store people sweet-talked me into getting him. He does great when it’s “day time”. He also went through some trauma and is doing great since then.
 
I believe you shouldnt be adding any type of coral or live stock so soon.....

Maybe, but so far it's been good. I've been checking all the parameters routinely as well.
 
In the second pic, it almost looks like a barnacle to me. Nems will move and retract so they can pick things up off of rocks. Barnacles definitely can live on living things.
 
Hey guys, just an update:
I was able to remove that thing from the anemone without disturbing it too much. As soon as I pulled it out of the water it kind of liquified and soaked right into a tissue. Pic attached
Thank you all for your help!
