Hi guys and gals can anyone say what is this? I seen it in my tank. It was actually 4 them. Is that a large aptasiha? I have a few rock flower nems but this looks close but for sure no real color to it.

Yeah, now that I see a side view with the foot and your finger there for reference, those are not aiptasia. I'd say perhaps majano, but the foot looks too big.

Let's call in an assist:

Im not the best with invert IDs, but I agree that it looks more like a pest anemone than not. Maybe a majano

Looking again, I think they could be lightbulb nems. Did they come in on gulf rock @Ocean_View ?

They were probably lurking and growing; patiently awaiting the right time to tick you off. Have you added anything else to the system in the last 4 months?

Long story short i toke about 20lbs of carbisea rock and put them in fish bag and had them in water in the back a buddys home on the keys left them there for 6 months. With plan to use in the start up of my 340 system. All went great so far. Well aprt from what ever these guys are.. Lol
