Aptasia or something else?

[windyscarecrow]

Greetings all!

I have a 1 month old, newly cycled nano tank that was started with TBS live rock. Just noticed this pop out of the rock and trying to figure out if this is indeed Aiptasia that needs to go. Thanks in advance!

Yup sure is. Destroy with fire

I don't know, do aptasia have striped tentacles?

Nope, lightbulb anemone. Here is mine.

Here is a handy link... light bulb

Mine started about the size of yours and is now the size of a baseball. Very cool, moved around the tank some. Grew but never multiplied. Had it for 18 months. I like it.

Mine was also TBS live rock. Keep your eyes peeled for these little gems too.
