    Welcome to 3reef!!!
    It looks like a type of anemone/mushroom to me though not sure as the the specific species!
    Did it come in as a hitchhiker on a piece of live rock?

    Hi
    Im not sure how it got in the tank. Ive had the rock in there for about 10 months now. I did add 10 kg about 8 weeks ago though.
    Ill wait to see what this new critter evolves into
