I just found an anemone on a rock that came with a coral. Its very small, and I thought at first it was aiptsasia, based on the size. But it has the characteristic bubble tips. And when I poked it with a straw it recoiled slowly but did not disappear in the speedy way aiptasia do.

Any thoughts. I can' get a decent photo of it. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Also, should I kill it as a precaution or wait and see it its a bta?

Thanks

Maybe a mojano anemone? Here is one I bought the other day, tiny, about the size of a quarter or less.<P><img src=http://www.kandjenterprises.net/saltwater/mojano1.JPG>

Thanks for the response. The one I have is smaller. Closer to dime size. And all around dark brown.
