sweepers coming from live rock

[bonomo53]

my just went over to my tank to feed some of my corals and just noticed a bunch of sweepers coming out of a small hole in my live rock i tried to get a pic but it came out really dark so i had to mess with the colors just so you could some what see it … any ideas what this could be aim tinkling some kind of pest anemone

Might be a form of cup coral or some other hard coral. check this link out Hitch Hiking Corals

I can't really tell but it actually looks like a nem or shroom of some type to me with 2 mouths in the center?

Im pretty sure they are from a small colony of carribean corallimorphs. These are anemone-like mushrooms that only get about 0.5 in. big, grow fast in dark areas, and extend their tentacles the most in the dark.

They are seen in both orange and white.

There are a few different species of these. They are a mushroom though, NOT AN ANEMONE, so if they are contained or if you dont mind them,let them be. If they are in the way get rid of them.

Examples

Orange

White

Another possibility is a small colony of strawberry anemones, but the tentacles pictured look more translucent than that of a strawberry anemone.
