Neat but what is it? anonome?

I got some frags and it was on on of them this weekend. Its hard to see from the pic but its a bright green with purple tips. It about jumped off as I placed the frags in the tank. its also moved about an inch so I was thinking its not coral but IDK?

 

if it moved..i would guess some sort of anemone.

or an alien!

 

its probably a majano, look it up on google and see if thats what it looks like

 

There are not alot of good pics under google but I think that is it from what I saw. The thing is small so identifiny it is tough. I took that pic with a 60mm macro lens on my nikon d80 and still could hardly see it. Are these things bad, good or indeferent? I think its kind of neat to see personally. I havent had alot of cool hitch hikers. I did get some bad ones so hoping this is not a pest like many of the others.

 

here is a picture of the majano i have in my tank. It has gotten bigger, but i still havnt killed it. i plan on killing it, just havnt gotten around to it. it can sting your coral if you have any, and they can multiply and take over your tank. I've had my majano for a couple months. since I've had it, 3 aiptasia anemones have found the same rock their home. The 3 of them are stinging my zoas, and the majano has moved to the back and doesn't disturb anything. I have a lot of coral, so its bad they are in my tank. they are filter feeders though, and some people keep them in their refugium

 

My first thought was manajo also.

 

+1 on mojano. Pest anemone. Joes juice

 

+2 Majano for sure. Aiptaisa X or Joes Juice and be diligent about it. They are stubborn. Good luck!

 

It's actually a tulip anemone. Nicer looking than a majano but still considered a pest.
