I purchased a live rock with GSP on it and today I found something off that doesnt look like GSP. Im wondering if it is paly? if so should I remove it or just throw the rock away? I heard they give nasty toxins out

It's not a palythoa, it's not aiptasia, but I think it is probably an anemone. Might be a majano but it's hard to tell from this picture.
Does your camera have a "beauty" filter on it? It looks like it's over smoothing fine details which happens a lot with those filters because they're trying to blur out pores on people's faces. A lot of phone camera apps have this on by default now.
Sorry for the bad photo
this is the best i can do with my camera :'(
Its just an iphone stock camera without any filters!Does your camera have a "beauty" filter on it?

Yeah that looks like an anemone to me. It also looks like it's inflating ("bubbling") its tentacles in several pictures which is not something Aiptasia does. I am guessing based on that, its small size and hitchhiker status it is a majano anemone but I'm not 100% confident and it could be something more innocuous.

I tried to take another shots by pulling up the rock. Do you think its an anemone?

also if it makes you feel better there's only a couple palythoa species that produce dangerous amounts of palytoxin. most are pretty harmless.Thanks all! I almost freaked out after thinking it might be palys because of the toxins lol
I guess I will just wait and see what happens to this little anemone
