Need help figuring out what this is. I have read the hitch hiker ID post, and could not find anything there. I'm positive it is not a coral, it acts like an anemone, but does not appear to be a ball, or glass.

i don't think it's a tube sponge, the body looks smooth like an anemone. granted i could be wrongThis may be tube sponge
Will have to look on regular screen opposed to my phonei don't think it's a tube sponge, the body looks smooth like an anemone. granted i could be wrong
Duh- now that I am on a large screen- I see it now. . . was looking above and on my phone the rock if you look at it almosts looks like an algae blenny. . .LOLi don't think it's a tube sponge, the body looks smooth like an anemone. granted i could be wrong
have not tried, i try not to feed the trolls lolInteresting, does it accept food?
I will try tomorrow, lights have went out for the night. I'll try to get a picture of the body extended as wellAny possible way you can get different angle
I've had similar if we're looking at the same things. At the time I didn't wait for a positive ID. Took F-aiptasia and smothered it.I have some jeweler's loupes, I will try and get a close up picture of it tomorrow, and some different angles. I'm pretty confident in it being a nem, based on how fast it moves (opens back up after I aggravate it). It's really a strange looking creature, and I have looked and searched. (It's in my wife's deskmate). She posted on some facebook groups, and gotten replies as far fetched as a bristle worm. Nonetheless, I will try to get better pictures tomorrow. Any suggestions as how to handle it? Straight up removal? Cut the rock and remove? Leave it be? Don't want to cause any issues down the road
And ... Drink!Duh- now that I am on a large screen- I see it now. . . was looking above and on my phone the rock if you look at it almosts looks like an algae blenny. . .LOL
I believe this is a corallimorph also. It doesnt seem to have an mouth that anemones have
Lokk at the rock and then this blenny:
