Anemone?

[Jesstheveg]

We just got through setting up our rock lifts and aquascaping, which resulted in seeing the sides of rocks that were hidden before. Along with many more hard tubed feather dusters, I found what looks like an itty bitty anemone to me. I've looked at pictures of aiptasia and it does not look like that at all.

I will try and get pics, but with my awful photography skills and the weird positioning, who knows how they'll turn out. Until then, here's a description: probably about dime-sized with a pinkish/translucent base and many translucent tentacles with white ball looking things at the tips. Very hard to see the tentacles themselves, but the tips draw your attention.

Thanks in advance for any help. I'm off to try and get a pic!

Ok, finally a picture. Not that great, but I can't seem to get better. If you look very closely, you can kind of see the tentacles and white tips and also the pink base where it's attached/wedged in to the rock.

And from a different angle now that the rock has been moved. It retracted a bit after being moved, which made it a bit easier to see:

It looks like a Majano (not sure on the spelling) another pest anenome

Thanks! I had looked at pics of Majanos, but it didn't resemble them so I kinda cast it aside. You guys know better than me, though!

I have had many.

Here is another thread I had started when I first found them. My initial ID was incorrect:

Wow, thanks ScruffyRubicon! That's exactly what it looks like. Do I need to feed it or will it filter feed? It doesn't seem very happy today since the rock it's on was flipped over and he's got some more light. Only movement is pulling into itself when anything goes near it.

Ok, I've now found a total of 7 of these guys and am starting to wonder if it'll cause an issue later as that seems to be quite a bit. They are all on the rock I got with the tank with 3 of them on just little pieces of rubble rock that were buried under the sand. These and the one on the bottom of the big rock are translucent without the pink base of the others (I'm assuming from lack of light?) They are inactive and often pulled in during the day and extended at night, I'm assuming to filter feed. None look like majanos or aiptasia, but I don't know how quickly they can become a nuisance.

If I leave them in there, will I be overrun in a few months time? As interesting as they are now with nothing in the tank, I'm sure it'll become annoying when I'm wanting to add corals. TIA for any suggestions
