Saw this and immediately though aptasia. . . but the tips of the tentacles are green and it has a sort of "body"??? I have heard of stylos spreading and I have a green one, could it be that?

I’m wondering if it’s a ball anemone? Hard to tell from the picture. I have lots of them. They hitchhiked from recent coral additions in my case. At first I was alarmed, but they are kind of cool and don’t seem to harm anything. They seem to prefer very, very low light areas, almost completely shaded, if that’s what yours is.
