Could someone please identify this Anenome (PIC)

I received this anenome with my Tampabay Saltwater liverock order. Does anyone know what kind of anenome this is?? Is it good or bad to have around?? Thanks!

Looks like a flower anemone Epicystis crucifer.

If by this you mean common name of rock flower I have three and they have done great under moderate light. Color can vary from brown-green-bluish purple. Look awesome under my moon lights.

Only thing to watch is they can strectch out quite a bit and with all anenome they may roam, so watch corals if you have them.

HTH,

Thanks for the ID...looks like I will keep him around. I fed him some minced shrimp last night...and he readily ate it...then I got nervous he could eat the tank inhabitants. Looks like he should be safe enough. He has been hinding under and behind the rock until last night.

Thanks for the ID
