no it does not look like aptasia to me. more like little white ball anemones. i had some in my tank. they multiply very fast but i used some aptasiaX to kill them off. works well

i would agree with ball anemones. they can be just as nasty as aptaisa though

It is a hidden cup coral..nothing to worry about..
