I found this while looking at my live rock at night.
I've seen it a few times now but it only comes out after the lights have been off for a few hours.
I never see it durring the day time.
Maybe it pulls back into a crevice in the live rock or maybe it pulls it's legs into it's body like a feather duster... I don't know...
Any way...
It has a 1/4 inch thick round tan body and at the top it has these arms...
The only way I can describe it's arms/tenticals is that they look like small tan spider legs with white tips. It sort of looks like an anemone to me but I don't know since it dissapears in the morning...
My main concern is that it might be apitasia...
Can anyone tell me what this looks like?

It's daytime now and I figured out what it's doing.
I memoriesed the spot on the LR where I found saw it last night and saw that it was still there.
It just pushed it self back onto the live rock and layed it's arms flat agains the rock so it's almost impossible to spot.
Anyway, here's another picture I took just the other night.
Does anyone know what this is?
