Is this an anemone or what?

[Cnypitbulls]

I also think I have an anemone in my tank but I don't know wat is is if its good or bad can anyone help me please.... I had recently bought a coco worm from my local lfs, there was something weird looking in the outer side of the tube but I thought it was part of the shell. A few days later I was just looking at my tank and I notice tentacles protruding from it. It's like a bright orange little tube with white tentacles flowing from it. Can anyone help me?

Sun coral.

You got lucky :)

These DO NOT use light to survive. They NEED to be fed. Give it some mysis every day or so to keep it alive. They will grow into a colony.

Try looking up corynactis anemone or strawberry anemone. Now that I see the tenticles that would be my guess.

Its actually a Dendro. Not a sun coral or anemone.

Dendrophyilla , it's worth more than the coco worm. Lol

Totally a dendro. Congrats. Try and target feed it and it will do great.

Is the stem hard like it's calcified?
