I bought a piece of live rock recently to throw in my refugium - slowly more and more anenome-like creatures have appeared. Some of them have feathery xenia-like tentacles, others have smooth brown-ish tentacles. The rock is from Indonesia if it helps with identification.
Obviously my immediate thought was Aiptasia or Majano - and there definitely is Aiptasia on this rock (you can see one in the picture below) - but to me they look substantially different and I haven't been able to get an ID from googling their description. They could also be some kind of worm but they seem to come out when the light is on so I assume they're photosynthetic?
There's LOADS of them appearing so I'd really like to ID them before they become a problem!
