ID this on Coral Rock
Can anyone tell me what this is on my yellow polyp rock? It has reproduced one time. the new one moves around on the rock, this one has stayed put. When I touch it, it retracts completely into the rock.

Some type of pest anemone. Inject them both with either kalk slurry or one of the commercially available products like Aiptasia X.

Yes, it is a rock of yellow polyps. I'm curious about the thing in the front near the bottom. that's not a yellow polyp. It sits flat to the rock, retracts into the rock when it is bothered and has reproduced an offspring that moves around on the rock.

It's probably aiptaisa. (like mentioned above) I didn't even see that at first glance.
