Found this growing (white circled) in my Daisy star polips and I know he is Aiptasia. Look at the next two pics from my zoa island do these look like Aiptasia also or another type of zoa? I have some F Aiptasia ordered just waiting for it to come in. Not sure if Aiptasia grows out on long stalks like this from the Zoa island. Those are circled in black.

Here’s a good video showing the Zoa island for a better ID.
