I'm pretty sure this is an Aiptasia, but maybe having a bad reaction to a recent round of Chemiclean.

Any thoughts or opinions?

I would say no to aptasia. Looks a little like a majano but not really. Let's see what @AcroNem and #reefsquad have to say
 
It's such a great shot that I can't ID it! I've never seen a majano that closely but I imagine it might look like that...
 
I googled balls and they seem more Ricordea mushroom like.
This one in person looks like a rose bubble tip anemone. Has more of a red hue than I caught on pics.
Looking at it as possibly a majano I can see it more now. I had another possible mojano and it seemed more whitish in appearance is why I didn't think that to start with.
Whatever it is might be past tense now as I hit it with some h2o2 and then with some aiptasia x before I left last week. I need to ask my fishistants if its still a viable organism.

So I should end the Auction?

Oh no. We'll just say these are so rare they don't ship well.[emoji57]
It might still be there. I have been trying to get what I thought was an appy in about that same spot for a while. Every time I thought I got it, it comes back. Its at the bottom point of a cone shaped piece of Fiji rock and this time it popped out other side of point.
