Looks like an aiptasia anemone. Invasive and sting coral

F-aiptasia works well for a chemical method. Others including myself have had success with peppermint shrimp or berghia nudibranchs for a natural approach. Do it very soon either way. Best of luck :)

yep after googling it I think your right. Thank you, any experience on best way to get rid of them
I have heard that if you inject them with very hot water or lemon juice it will kill them. The one thing you do NOT want to do is try to pluck it out, that will cause it to spread.

Whatever you do DO NOT use Aptasia X, it will make them spread like wild fire!
