hard to tell from pic but I am going to say a bubble tip anemone. Can't tell if its a regular or a rosetip. If it was a rosetip you would have paid significantly more...

Well, it's kind of purple all over with a greenish cast. When deflated, the tentacles are very thin and more purplish-green. The tentacles seem to be a bit longer than most bubble tips I've seen.
Help.

It was free! My LFS guy wasn't sure what it was, as it was totally deflated, so he gave it to me. It was very dark with skinny little arms until I put him in my tank. It immediately perked up and found his spot on a rock.

I dont think that is a BTA... this is a BTA and IMO they dont look alike..

I dont know though...But I would have to agree with ric it looks very similar to a Mojano.. let us know if you find out for sure. BTW how much did you pay for it?

It was free. As I said earlier, my LFS guy didn't know what it was.....it hitch hiked in on a rock.....so he gave it to me. Someone else suggested it may be a rock anemone.
What is a mojano?

Yeah, what do y'all think I should do? Wait and see if it multiplies?
So many people think it's a GBTA.

its probably a gbta, but the green tint isnt there probably due to lighting. give it some time, great water conditions, and great lighting and the tint should come back.

Thanks Renogaw!
I am planning to give it time and TLC an see what happens. It was so sad looking at the LFS and they just didn't care to find out what it was, so I adopted him.
