To begin with I thought it was a ricordia but looks more like an anemone of some sort but I've never heard of one eating a snail! That bugger must have been starvin! *L* Escargot! Sorry I can't indentify exactly. I'm sure some one will come along soon that can let you know exactly what it is.

Hey Sas! I looked this up since I've not heard of such a creature as a lightbulb anem..... doesn't quite look like the above picture as it has no banding around the tentacles. They look more like a aip or maj. Could it possibly be a baby bubble tip anem?? If so what a find!

http://www.gulf-view.com/site/images/species-15.jpg That's the picture is came up with for a lightbulb anem.
nobody said anything about me having to be correct, I get paid by the post (insert chuckle here haha) there was a pic on another site that looked very similar, at first I thought majano but it looked to refined Majano's always look kind of clubish to me, so once again I concede to your utter awesomeness and lean towards a baby BTA, crawling away now, ouch,ouch

Hey Sas how did you end up on the payroll??!! *L* I want in!! " Utter awesomeness"....aawwwwwww you are too kind sir. LOLOLOLO!!!
Hey thanks for the info guys.. Someone from another site said it's a Pseudocorynactis nem and after looking that up online I would have to agree. Here are more pics and some of the same but larger at my photobucket link. Thanks

Look at the size of the mouth on that baby. It's half the size of the anemone. Ouch!
