The neon one I have had for 3 years and started as only 1. I still don't know what it is. The other one came as a free small frag in an online order and has blown up. Please let one know what they are. Thanks.

First one kinda resembles a duncan if you say its not aptasia. Its hard to tell with all the blue. What color is it? 2nd one looks like a SPS of some sort but i am not familar with them so cant help you there.

First one is a majano anemone...definitely a pest that you got as a hitchiker on one of your rocks. The second one is tough to tell due to all the blue.

Joes juice or a shot of vinegar in the middle with a syringe should get rid of the majano.

Not a mojo. This pic stinks. It's def a coral, came on a frag plug and individually wrapped. Let me take another pic.

On the first pic it looks like a duncan.

The neon one looks the same in the daylight as well. At night sweepers come out of the tips.

In the second pic, are they stony or soft? If soft, could it be a type of leather? Not sure of all the leather's names but I'm sure there's some that look like that if it's not hard or stony...

First is a duncan you can see new polyps coming out the sides.
