Looks like brown palythoas. Google it and palytoxin before doing ANYTHING.

Aren't most toxic?
Supposedly they’ll release their toxins when irritated. Like if you move them, break them, etc. so be careful just in case.

Did you put them in or they hitchhiked their way in?

I put them in a while ago, started with one Polly, sitting on a little piece of frag with nowhere to grow

No fish in tank, just frags and shrooms of all different stuff but no SPS

I see. If you want to keep them, why not? Just be aware of the potential for the toxin. And I’m not even 100% sure this is the bad type.

Always a risk with everything we do. I don't move him or touch him anyways. Hopefully he should be fine... Just trying to figure out the exact one he is. What you mentioned seems to be correct so far

They look like everyday zoanthids to me. Some think they are pest because they grow fast others love them. I personally wouldn't worry about them.
