What's this little dude...

[BudgetReefer007]

got a few of these pop'n up around my 20 gallon.. they seem to have the foot like an anemone but are small and almost shaped like a zoa..... the center is redish and the short skirt is clear. at night they seem to have longer tentacles that come out and have a glow to the ends. they also have a bit of a glow in the right light/angle. im not sure if they are something i should leave or get now while there are only a few......... *sorry i cant get a great pic.. i have one that attached to a pebble, i glue the pebble to a plug and waiting.... in the meantime can anyone help?

That looks more like a ball anemone, but the pics aren't clear.

I have tons of them that line the bottom of my aqua scape. They dont sting but are very sticky. Makes quick work on amphipods and any residual coral food.

this could also be.. they look similar to the ball anem but they are little red one... i have a few here and there, one is right in some gsp but all seems ok as of now.. im planning to capture a few and try to grow them and get better pics.. just hoping it nothing too invasive (i could start pickn em out and gluing down any i see but hate ta blast somethin cool, lol)
