What is this? is it aiptasia?

it has this xenia look to it but I'm not sure if it is or not.
I've had pulsing xenia in the tank before but it wasn't this color and this one isn't pulsing if it is a xenia.

I am no expert, but that does not look like an anemone of any kind. I would have guessed soft coral.

I agree

I see feathery tentacles. Usually this means it’s some sort of octocoral.

Doesn't look like aptasia but not sure I would want it in my tank either.

 

[Garpgarp]

A young Medusa worm maybe? Just thinking about the long slim body and sparse looking tentacles.

 

[neonreef3d]

looks like a soft coral, not aptasia.

It could be a lot of things, but it looks like the start of a Kenya tree coral to me.

Kenya tree is a real possibility as I do have some small remnants of a large Kenya tree I took out a few months ago. I’ve only ever dealt with branches never spawn. Are they known to spawn in tanks?
