| Another "weird" tank critter..(anemone?) Some mighty weird stuff appearing in my tank as of late...
Here is another strange hitchhiker that showed up recently in the tank after adding a polyp rock...
You can see in center of pic sitting on sponge...right below leather..
It looks like a fuzzy headed anemone and has moved about to several different locations looking for a good home. It presently is sitting on a sponge.
Closer view...
and another,
Might this be a version of the dreaded Majano?
It seems to be growing...
anyone else seen one of these?
Any input appreciated...

| A better picture would really help because with the ones you posted, I think it looks like an upside down jellyfish and that can't be right |

Has trunk, moves like an anemone. |
