Aiptasia. Not good.

I'm fairly new to this but I thought that was a paly. I do no my appy by now. Been fighting them for a while.

The anemone is an aiptasia - get rid of it now. The Protopalythoa may be the invasive kind. If you did not put it there, I would get it out. Seriously, if it is the invasive browns, they are impossible to kill and are very toxic to mess with. If you are not sure, let it go and see how it develops. However, if it is the browns, be prepared to take the rock out to defeat those buggers.

If your having issues with the aiptasia that traditional methods arnt working (hot water, Kalk paste, AiptiaX) try asking your LFS for Atlantic Peppermint shrimp as they will eat them. I personally watched a single shrimp clear out 8 large appys in a single night. Now said shrimp is a little fatty. Dont bother with pacific peppermint shrimp as they will simply give the nem a high five.
