Glass anemone = bad. There in my sump and they don't seem to hurt anything but you don't want them in your main tank.

siphon it out. scrape it off completely when you do it. hopefully it is the only one you have.

Look real close,if you have one that big,there's provable more!

Yes, check closely as they will be on the sump walls and base, on the return pumps etc in your sump and maybe even on the inside of your overflow (which are almost impossible to get to to clean out).

Does a peppermint shrimp eat those like aptasia?

Eww, bad anemones, scrape them and flush them! I don't think pm shrimp will eat these.....only aptasia.....
