maybe a better pic will help. They dont really look like anemones to me though. If you are certain, adn you want htem gone, inject them with boiling water from a syringe.

Do a search for majano anemones. That should turn up a few helpful threads.

Dang, I wish I could get lucky with these "pests." If isolated on their own rock island, they will not spread to the entire tank and do not pose any kind of threat to your livestock. IMO, they are very attractive and their sting is no where near comparison to an Aiptasia. You can send them my way ^_^.

True, but unlike Aiptasia, they need to split. Aiptasia can be cut up and spread "spores."

the pictures only shows a few, but there are as many as 100 of them all over. it started with about 10 or so and with in about 6 months or more ive got them everywhere, and they can't be isolated to just one or two rocks, cuz they move just like other anemones, but thanks for the thread link and advice.

More than 100? Goodness! That is def out of control, lol.
