    I have had one of those before. I don't know if it is still there but it stayed deep in the shadows and only really opened up at night. I thought I found a website that IDd it but now I can't remember.

    yea it doesn't like the light at all. It closes up and move back into the corners under rocks my one tank is covered in them. But only found them when I broke the tank down to move it.

    Orange Ball Corallimorph (Pseudocorynactis caribbeorum)

    I think this is the organism in question. I don't have a picture but you can Google it and come up with some good images. Hope this helps.

    Hmm! You are right nanoreefer. Strawberry anemones are commonly found in cold waters. It's possible we are dealing with some isomorph of Cornynactis sp. !
