So I have a frag of zoas with 3 small anemones on it. I know the they aren't aptasia but I'm not sure what they are. They are green with pink tips and for the most part only extent at night. Sorry about the picture quality but I had trouble getting my phone to focus both during the day and at night with my blue led spotlight.

Looks like majano anemone's. They are a little less invasive than aptasia but still considered a pest. They have a potent sting as you can tell by the way the zoa's are completely closed.
 
Any tips on how to remove them without having to frag the whole colony?
 
Pretty sure you can inject them with Kalk just like aptasia. Never had them though so I dont have any first hand experience.
