Default 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...

OmarD

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

It looks like an Octocoral(soft coral)! Either Xenia or Anthelia! But the picture isn't to clear...
