Tiny fluorescent creature on live rock

[mhartley276]

Anyone know what this might be? Is it some type of coral hitchhiker? Noticed it last night on live rock because it’s fluorescent under my moon lighting. It’s very tiny… smaller than pencil eraser. Almost flower-like circular thing with orange dot in center and a bunch of green dots in middle and outer circle. Sorry this is the best pic I could get

Notice how I said oddball hahaha. I have a few really unique pest nems that I allowed to stay on the lagoon

I do not think it is a majano though. I have quite a few of them and the lack of a very distinct mouth shape like they have steers me away from it being one.

But if it is.... I am serious about driving to get it. Anywhere in NC is just a day trip for me lol.

and @LRT you still have not sent me pics of those nems, so I can ID them. You need to throw them in your build thread. I need something to do while finishing out the day at work lol.

I'm gonna throw a whole hearted +1 on the request to see unique pest nems! Back before I had a kid I'd go to at least 2 stores every weekend just to hunt for hitchhiking nems in the displays, sumps, etc.

Lol I’ll let you know before I kill it! For now I’m just going to wait… it is pretty whatever it is!!

looks like either baby mushroom or a ball anemone. A pretty one at that. I have nice pink ball anemones that look almost like a baby magnificent anemone.
