Found these in the tank, not sure what the smaller one on the rock is, and the one on the overflow is a nem of some sort, not sure what kind but I'm guessing a pest of some sort, any ideas? Before I start attacking them with aptasia X.

x-them out, the one on the rock i'd say is manjano and the one on the over flow is aptasia.
both pest anemone and would be hard to get rid of if it get out of control and would also sting out corals.
 
Yeah, all the pics of ball anemones I'm finding look like these, so that mystery appears to be solved, treated the other with Ap X , so hopefully it dies.
 
Good call Tater! I had never seen one until I googled it, always learning something new in this hobby! If you run out of Aptasia X you can try white vinegar in a syringe. Just keep power heads on and use it sparingly. :)
 
Man I'm getting schooled this week, now I want to fined some ball anemone to put in my tank.
A ball anemone isn't really a anemone at all but is in the mushroom family and is more a lights out inhabitant that comes out more at night and is totally reef safe.
Major brownie points Tater, thanks for the lesson.
