    We bought a green candy cane a few weeks back and noticed a small hitch hiker though it doesn't appear to be an aptasia. It has moved a very slight distance away from the base of the candy cane. It has not gotten any bigger but now there are 2 of them one is lighter in color and to me looks more like an apatisia with the other resembling a gbta. Any ideas would be appreciated. [​IMG]

    Looks like a Majano anemone to me.

    Thank you guys so much the rock that the candy cane was on was the one it it came on from the LPS so we just took it off the small rock and mounted it in the tank and took the rock with the majano out and threw it in the trash. /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default//emoticons/smile.gif Greatly appreciate all the prompt replies!!!!
