I was dumping out the water from buckets I used 2 pick up some LR from a local guy who was selling his tank.. and I noticed after I spilled all the water out this little thing on the bottom of the bucket.. I at first thought it was a zoa.. I picked it off the bucket and dropped it into my tank and I have a lot of flow so it floated for a little bit and then hit a rock and it stuck.. and then i looked back like 10 mins later and it was on there straight w/ its foot holding onto the rock.. I tried 2 take a photo but it didnt come out good.. Is it a baby anemone or somthing?

It's some kind of anemone judging by how fast it latched on to the LR. Look up pics of majano anemone to compare.

I have one very similar in my tank. I believe it is a certain kind of majano but mine hasn't spread in over a year. I think certain variants of that anemone do not multiply as fast as others.
