    Agreed with packleader just based on color..

    amcarrig also makes a good point though.. the tentacles are kind of "jagged" and stubby like a majano.. I have never seen one bleached before though.. but if it was a hitchhiker is a good chance..

    I was thinking that too, but with the red foot/base made me think cony/haitian.
    Bleached either way ;)
