what kinda Anemone do I have

[Rena321654]

I just bought some live rock that has something attached to it...... I think it is an anemone but I am not sure. it kind of looks like a purple mushroom with bunches of little swaying "arms". I was looking for a picture of it but cannot find one on the web. Anybody know of a website that would have pictures where I can compare them??
Thanks for any help you all can give.

Can you post a photo of it?

It sounds like Aiptasia.....Read this thread and then click on the link that Great lakes posted. If that is what you have you need to get rid of it.

I found out that it is not Aptasia, and I don't have a digital camera.....The guy at the pet store says he has no clue what kind it is, however, it does move around and it "grows" during the day and then gets smaller at night.....it is purple in color and kinda fat....right now it is only about a half inch in diameter
