Strange polyp / anenome Ok guys sorry but no pic. It's just too small and reclusive. I have a polyp / anenome that only comes out at night. Any light even the soft light of the room being on will cause it to pull back into a very tiny crevice. However sometimes when I surprise it and just walk into the dark room and turn the lights on I catch a few second glimpse of it.
It is the head of a nail perhaps 1/4" to 1/3" across. Tentacles on the outer rim only. The tentacles are pinkish purple the mouth appears to have a green ring.
It obviously is very light sensative and pulls completely back at first signs of light. It hasn't moved from it's spot in the week I have had it. It's a stowaway from my live rock.
Doubt that anyone from it's description can name it but thought I would try. Wish I could get a pic but need light for the camera to focus and that just causes it to shrink away not to mention it's super tiny and I don't think my current camera could do justice so going to look into getting a better camera. |
