Anyone help with ID on this? Starting to show up around my tank! TIA

no clue but i'm interested since i have some too. From the research i've done it looks like they might be a species of Aptasia but i'm not positive on that.
 
They can be. The ones I've had, had clear tentacles with white tips. The base was a pinkish color though.
 
So majano good or bad? It's showing up every where and pretty sure I just spotted aiptasia growing too
 
Oh I don't know they resemble the majano too hmm should I just get rid of it to be safe??

Ive had these before. They are called "pseudocorynactis". They can sting other corals but are actually harmless because they dont spread to other rocks. I just left mine there and i never had a problem. Actually i think mine eventually dies off.
 
The first one in the thread is a pseudocorynactis. The second one I do believe is a majano.
