Aiptasia Babys

[Matthew5664]

Found somthing on my LR the other day it looked like a white egg with the bottom cut off moving at a snails pace. Any ideas???

At the moment is taken up a place on the LR and hasn't moved in a day

My thinking is it's a baby Aiptasia would this be correct?

[Mr Miagi]

Babies can sometimes appear white or totally clear. They are basically miniture versions of their bigger relatives, with thier foot, and several tenticles.
