Tim I don't know specifically but anything that looks like an anenome that doesn't seem to rely on light (due to cave) doesn't give me a good feeling. Makes me think aptasia/majano type problems.

Hopefully somebody here will have a positive ID... don't blast em yet!

Certainly looks like an anemone. It doesn't shy away from light, does it?

Looks to me to be a White-ball anenome. I have some in my tank.. I hear they are bad (stinging corals), but I have them next to zoas, softies, etc. with no ill-effect or anything. I don't know if white-ball is the common name to Corynactis sp or not. But I have them, and like them. A little splash of life.
