I had many of these show up in my Aquarium months ago, everyone said to kill it, get rid of it. At first I thought it was Tiny Bubbletips, but they haven’t grown, don’t take feed like the Bubbletips. They can move, but do so very slowly and don’t move far. Seem to prefer shaded areas. Pink with green highlights on tentacles, purple center, with a very definite mouth. They haven’t bothered anything. First picture folded in.

Heavy blue lighting making it tricky to tell but either a majano anemone or gracious anemone.
Many consider these pests while others like them because of their vivid colors
 
Looks more like a gracious anemone. It’s a very colorful one. i have three that survived the initial ones. The thing is I don’t know where they came from, due to covid nothing had been added to the tank in a long time.
 
I can’t find info on gracious anemones. Is that a common term for something else?
