This is not a pest species. If you want to keep it you will have no problems out of it as it doesn't spread like aiptasia. Its just a cool hitchhiker.

Those aren't anemones, they're corals. Specifically, Phyllangia americana, hidden cup coral.

I have had those in my tank. Ive posted a picture 2 years ago and no one could answer what they were. Every one kept telling me it was aptasia that is growing in a dead skeleton. Having plenty of aptasia in my tank I knew 100% they weren't. I wonder if I still have mine the pulsing xenia has covered them now
