BLUE!

but for what I can see looks like a hydroid. . . could be aptasia

need better pictures

 

[Tuan’s Reef]

take another pic with white lights only. That looks like an aiptasia to me. Which is an invasive pest

 

[Imaburch]

It's aiptasia and kill it now!!

These pictures are not good at all turn on the white lights for better ID. From what I can see and description it looks like aiptasia. Super glue it or remove rock and scrape the area clean rinse in a bucket with tank water. They spread so address problem early to prevent it from being a problem.

First reaction is a nem of some sort, but we need pictures under white or natural light to help give a better answer.

I’m blinded !

White light pictures (ex. with a flashlight) will help, but I believe the organism in question is an Aiptasia anemone, a common pest that spreads rapidly and can sting its tankmates.

I know the blue light I get it I’m sorry lol
But after all your comments (ignoring blue light comments) but I get it ANYWAY it looks to be aiptasia so I will definitely look to get it out tomorrow thank you everyone for the help !!

 

[Stephen8169301]

It's aiptasia and kill it now!!

Definitely will looks to only one so far

 

[Stephen8169301]

Okay under white light!!

Given the size (looks very small), it may be a hydroid. Usually harmless but it’s not gonna hurt to get it out just on the safe side.

The picture doesn't seem to be focused on it, but it definitely looks like aiptasia to me.
