I found this little guy on a Marine Pure block that I use in my quarantine tank for Corals and fish,
Can I get an ID on this critter?
It's amout a 1/8 to 1/4 inch.

Looks to be a young anemone. Generally the wrong color for aptasia or Majano, but still a possibility

Now that you mention it, yes it does.
I guess i'll keep an eye on it. Strange as the only anemone in my tank and the tank this one came from are RBTA.
I only see them split.
 
Could be a very young ball anemone, I would just keep an eye on it for now unless someone can confirm what it is
 
Hi all.
Thought i would bump this up.
I still have this tiny critter moving around in my quarantine tank.
I sometimes see it floating around in the current my powerhead makes, then it finds footing and sticks to the glass.
It is still about 1/8-1/4" in size.
If it's Majano or aptasia i'll just shut down the quarantine tank but if it's a cool nem of some sort, I'll move it into my display tank.
It hasn't really grown and it hasn't multiplied.

Thanks

Dnt think it’s a majano anemone, me id be tempted in keeping it happy and let it grow, could transform in a nice gem
 
I really like how it looks as well sixty reefer. Also knowing it hasn't multiplied makes me want to keep it as well.

It doesn’t have the look of the common pest, that’s something that if I had seen in a shop I would of brought home just to see what it is.

This is just an example of something I’ve seen the other day and bought a dying frag just because I liked the little nem on the corner of the plug. I believe it could be a LD BTA time will tell but it will be interesting to see it grow.
