They have been in my QT for a few months now. Originally there was only one of them but it split and now I have 7. Since they dont seem to hurt anything and they look kinda pretty I let them live in there but I'm not sure of what they are.

They possibly appear to be small mojahno* anemones
Yup, Mojano Anemone
Not a good one to keep. Although they can be colorful, you may be able to separate the rock its on, and keep them like that away from the rest of the rock.

That was my first thought too, but since they are so colorful, I wasn't so sure anymore. Is it true that if you touch them, they will give you horrible blisters?

None that I'm aware of. They will sting other corals from what I know of, but not enough to put a mark on us.
