I don’t like that observation. I am a newbie reef holder and now must determine the way to eradicate give a number of difficult methods.
Looks like a Majano to me.

So far I have only seen this one. What if I use a pump stick I use for water changes? Can the be sucked from their location?

ave just seen this
These seem to have bubble tips and I have 2 anemones in my young tank.
 
So you have a few different options - you can remove the rock and physically remove the Majanos, you can use something like F Aiptasia to smother them out, or you can try a peppermint shrimp. I can’t say for sure if a Peppermint shrimp will eat Majanos but they’re fun to have even if they don’t.
If you decide to physically remove them from the rock, you can just pull the rock out and scrape them off. You have to be sure to get the entire foot though. After you remove it, you can always put some super glue or epoxy there to be sure it’s smothered out.
 
I picked up some aptasia-x to seal the hole where it was. I gouged it out of the rock hole while using pump suction to remove it to an exterior bucket. Thanks for the response.
