Anyone got a possible ID on this?

No clue what this could be, single polyp, 3/8" across approximately. Does not feeble any coral in the tank, closes up and opens with the lights.
I do have a small hydroid (I think) on an acan, other than that I have not seen any clear pests or hitchhikers in the tank other than some worms I had leave the tank when getting rid of Zoas.

ricordea yuma most likely.

but, possible ball anemone. not as likely.

Looks a whole lot more like a ball anemone, do I need to remove it?

Do recordia hitchhike? Looking up images of both, right now it looks like a ball anemone, been there a couple weeks and hasn't really grown much. From what I can tell, neither are a concern though?

nope. They don't like a lot of light. So, it will probably hide under a rock somewhere.

neither are. the only reason it looks like a ricordea, is because of the markings. But, it could be the camera.

Looks like ball anemone to me. I have a number, they don’t seem to cause any real trouble.

Just hitchhikers? Any common coral or livestock they find their way in on?

Mine came on a wild Zoa rock. The rock had two. I now have three or four. They tend to grow in holes hence not near as invasive as far as I’ve seen and understand.

Pic from mine when I first got. Not a great pic but hopefully helps you confirm if this is the same

I used to love my little Strawberry Nems.

Looks similar as far as I can tell, I got some hammers and a torch recent, guessing it came with them.

Sure looks like a ball anemone aka corallimorphs, much more related to the typical mushroom coral than anemones.
