Uncommon Hitchhiker

Funny story. I was purchasing an aiptasia anemone (long story) and I got a hitchhiker pipe organ coral. Shows you just how ironic life can be.

There are about three polyps that I'v seen so far probably more.

Also I kind of like them when they are not taking over mu tank it is fun to watch them eat.
