I know that mushrooms are technically anenomes, but is this one some kind of pest anenome or a ricordia mushroom.  I've searched and not found any pics that look like them.  They have a red base, clear tentacles/polyps, and white on the tips.  Here are some pics, sorry they aren't better, I'm still trying to figure out how to take "good" tank pictures.

Either way, they look cool. Don't look like Majano or Aiptasia. As long as they don't spread like crazy, i would let it be.

Search for corallimorph (or Red Ball anemone) .

They are very closely related to both the "mushrooms" and sps.

It is a type of anemone. I can't remember what it is called, but it is not a pest.
