Greetings all! i am new to the hobby after wanting a saltwater tank for years and years. so far, it is as awesome as i had hoped :)

i got some new base rock yesterday, and it came with an unexpected traveler, some kind of anemone. i have searched about trying to ID it, but am just not sure. So i am posting a pic, hoping that someone here can ID it, so i am sure to make the right decision about it. my 30 gal is rocks and fish.

Looks to be a Mojano anemone....not a good hitchhiker.

+1 to the majano. You can kill it with aiptasia-x, Joe's juice or even a mixture of boiling water and lemon juice.
