Tiny hitchhiker on new frag purchased

[whalewhalewhale]

Hello! I purchased a torch yesterday from my LFS and what I originally thought was excess superglue on the frag plug turns out to be alive!

It seems to be responsive and closes up if my skunk cleaner shrimp gets too close to it.

hoping it isn’t anything bad...

Hard to tell since it's closed, but it kinda looks like a majano.

That looks like some type of zoa or paly to me, looks just like a half open zoanthid polyp to me, do you have any pictures with it fully open?

that’s fully opened. A friend told me it looks like a new head that’s growing. It was also in a tank with a handful of duncans.

Added bonus zoa - not a duncan

Definitely a zoa imo
