Coincidentally, I also have this anemone in its infancy (splitted months ago and was given to me).

I searched Wetwebmedia in attempt to identify my anemone, and found these links to be quite useful:

Mine seems to be an aiptasia. I suppose so because aiptasias propagate much faster than anemones, so much that people consider them as pests. Yours, I'm not that sure. A better picture would be good.
