I found an orange ball anemone and a few apaistia on a new piece of live rock. Will peppermint shrimp get rid of the apaistia? I do have a medium sized coral banded shrimp though will that be a problem? What would be the best way to get rid of them?

What should I do about the orange ball anemone. Its only about half an inch wide when its fully expanded.

I don't know what an orange ball anemone is. Can you post a picture?

Pseudocorynactis or Corynactis. One is larger and one more invasive supposedly. There is an article on them around here somewhere. I would love to have one of the larger variety.

I had one of these in my 20g approx a year ago but i made every effort to kill it short of injecting it. I wish i had a better understanding then, because i would have like to kept it. It only opened up at night OR the moonlights are what made me notice it by setting off the colors in it.
