I got one on a big rock I got with a ton of zoanthids. I'm assuming there's likely more. If I can see one, right? With that said...

I'm okay with them if they'll stay on the rock. Since the rock is on an island of sandbed, can I leave them? It's one of those tube worm rocks, so if my assumption is correct there could be dozens I couldn't get to.
The sting... Will it affect zoanthids? Green star polyps? It would be easier to take the zoas and gsp off the rock and toss the rock in the sump than to get the anemones off I'm guessing.

Yup, I id'd it via lionfish lair! I'll have to take pics tomorrow. It's a really neat rock. Tons of stuff living in the empty tubes. Unfortunately I'm stuck using my phone camera or kindle for pics. No computer sucks.

Here's pictures of the rock. The corynactis is behind/under the orange zoanthids. Otherwise, cool rock. See all the starfish legs?!?! Anyhow the anemone is tiny and barely visible. Soon I'll take real pics with my real camera
