for sure its Xenia I think rock anemone hit it on the money!! Looks like Elongate. Commonly encountered on the Philippine coral reefs. Have it in my tank also.

my vote is for elongata also. if it has the right current, it gets really long..hence the name "elongata" i guess. HAHA. :D

I have different species of Xenia. It looks more like Elonga, maybe small chance is the Red Sea Xenia. Most of the Elonga is alot browner color and thiner then Red Sea Xenia.
