Picked up this frag from my LFS...has 5 nice polyps (I think maybe Eagle Eye?). Over the last couple of days, a new polyp has emerged and I'm wondering if anyone can ID? Its the greenish one in the upper right of the photo. Is it a zoa? Anemone? Something else?

TIA for any help you can offer.

Some quick research tells me that these may be a fast grower and can be invasive - any experience with that? Nip it in the bud now? TIA

They can be tamed on a rock surrounded by sand when it starts overgrowing then trade with friends or give away
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
