[gunzo]

small .. but grew till this size and now found its home there .. refused to move..

Its reddish in color with slight blue bands on the tentacles .. it's slightly bigger than a 50cents coin now ..

Looks like some anemone

Maybe a giant aiptasia or manjano

[gunzo]

Grr .. now have to go kill it

so what does it do before I end it's life ?? Is it dangerous to my fish ??

Its to only guy to get that big .. the rest are really your standard size aiptasia...how can that happen?? or just a different specie??

aiptasia will move if food is not good around its stationed post.

so, they can grow as big as yours one, given the right condition.

Its generally irritation to yours other coral. See, those nearby buttons all closed-shop one, because aiptasia has bully and strong stinging tentacles. And they spread like virus.

I suspect you may have other small small ones somewhere already.

Its really hard to manually control them. Once you done with your manual work, look into predator approach like keeping peppermint shrimp.
