Aiptasia or good anenome? with picture

[reefer sadness]

I have a growth I'm not sure what to do. I followed the advice and touched it and it closed up for about 10 seconds and returned to normal. It's the only growth of it's kind in my tank. It arrived on a LR with the mushroom last week. Has not moved at all. Here is a picture

it could be a mojano anemone ... can you get a straight on pic.?

 

[reefer sadness]

I tried, but could not get a clear picture. If this is aiptasia, would it be spreading by now, I have had it 2 weeks?

photo does not show aiptasia IMO. Structurally quite different.

that's why i said if, without a closer picture i wouln't be sure

He's had it over 2 weeks as a single entity. It returns to normal in 10 seconds after retracting to touch.
Aiptasia take much longer and it would've spread by now.
Tentacles are too short/thick in porportion to the base/stalk.
Just my opinion.
Either way, you can 'inject' it with boiling hot water, kalkwasser, or lemon juice and it will go away.
[Joe's Juice is a waste of money IMO]

are the tentacles on the outside of the oral disk? If so, I say mojano.
