Hello everyone, can somebody id this I have seen it last night and it was two times smaller and only yellow and orange colours now that it popped out out of nowhere it has green part. I have no idea what it is and it's completely out of sand and when blue lights are on its very bright on colouration.

Do you have any euphyllia in the tank? A torch coral? Looks like a polyp bailed out
 
I do have one torch and one hammer coral but none of them have any yellows on it they're just green and blue. I was thinking if it could be that but wasn't sure and if it is should I remove it?
 
That's it under blue light.
