could be Ball anemone . Clearer pic would help.Hello! I've recently had this growing in my tank and more are popping up everyday I was thinking an anemone of some sort but starting to think it isn't due to how many there are!
I will try and get one for you
Google ball anemone and see if it matches up.
It doesn't look like that, it has a white base that looks like it is jagged all round the edge and I can't see a mouth at all? It looks a bit like a Christmas star with the main points being longer and little balls on the end and a long one in the centre that also has a ball?
Lol, great description. Try a majano anemone.
Haha thanks! Its annoying me incase its something bad.. it looks nothing like that.. I was starting to think maybe its a coral of some sort
Hmm, sounds like a hydroids but they are usually not that big. Does it look like this?
Would so many pop up so quickly?
Not really, there's too many legs and not the right shape. I hope it isn't thatHmm, sounds like a hydroids but they are usually not that big. Does it look like this?
That’s all I got. Maybe you’ve discovered a never before seen genus of coral or nem and will go on to become rich and famous. :)
Hydroid jellyfish are the size of the head of a pin (1-2 mm) - so its hard to tell - Hydroids (to my experience) grow more closely - in colonies. To me it looks most like a ball anemone. Would be nice to know the size from the OPHmm, sounds like a hydroids but they are usually not that big. Does it look like this?
A ball anemone is not really an 'anemone' - its a mushroom type coral. if it is a hydroid jellyfish - they are a nuisance but not a huge deal - if they are hydroids - (which to me does not look like) - they can be more problematic.
Its bigger than that maybe 2mm for that biggest one
