Looks like aptasia to me from those pics. Especially image #3.

Wonder if he is farming the stuff.
I've never heard of colonel anemones unless he means a colony of aptasia.

Well if he's giving it away and you boil the rocks, maybe I'd take it.

Now there's bergia breeders that would love that rock.

What about this rock do you find desirable?!?!?

I think he is joking around when he says "covered with small colonial anemones!"

I've seen them for sale, so who knows.

That's a Copperband Butterfly's dream right there! That's aptasia.God that tank is a mess.I wouldn't get it. I wouldn't get it unless hes giving you it for free, and you plan on drying it out.

I wouldn't bother. The rock itself doesn't look like it's very lively anyways, and with all that aptasia on it you'd want to nuke it anyways.
