Hey everyone I was looking at my rock today when I noticed this creature. I'm assuming it's a worm but am not sure. It's translucent/see-through and has little white tips on what look like clear polyps.

Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks guys and gals!
 
It's a ball anemone, it will sting and kill coral...in my experience it always seems to be zoas that they kill.
 
It can sting but these don't seem to spread like Aiptasia or Majanos. If it was in my tank I would leave it alone and keep a close eye on it.
 
Awesome thanks for the info guys. I think I'm going to keep an eye on it; it's in a part of the tank fairly far from all my coral aside from gsp which I have a ton of in that area. Will it move around in the tank? Currently it's hidden in a hole in some lr
