Hey! Long term lurker first time poster.

I’ve just pulled this critter out the sand. It has an orange mouth and kind of pinkish tentacles.

Should I worry?

Welcome, and congrats on your first post! I don't have an ID for you, but it is not aiptasia or majano, which are the two most common pest anemones. I would keep it if I were you, just to see what it turns into.

Oh that’s a relief. Thank you!
