So not really needing an id, just curious what are the chances it survived to be a hitchhiker. So has anyone ever had a baby Duncan coral as a hitchhiker? When I bought it I thought it was a paly, but on closer look it looks more like a duncan to me.

need a pic without the blues to be 100% certain, but I'd say either aiptasia or majano. Either way, very carefully get rid of it asap. Best to take it out of the tank before removing it from that frag.
 
That's a tough one, I'm not so sure about Aiptasia now.. Looks like a bristle worm just below it in this pic!

#reefsquad, anyone have a better idea what this is?
Yeah bristle worms I like! Lol keeps my rock clean. Doesn’t look like any pictures of majano Anemones I’ve seen while looking them up. Could be completely wrong though. It’s on the plug now by itself since I pried off the green slimer frag to split the two up. So won’t be hard to take out of the tank at all.
 
Now that I look, that's definitely majano..

Looks like this one.

I'd get it out of there, just to be safe.
I second the removal

Seems a shame to kill such an attractive looking anemone... but don’t really want it over populating and stinging coral either. Sigh. It moved onto the rock last night so going to start with Aiptasia X
