Need some help identifying the zoa behind the feather duster. Also I have noticed that there are brown polyps growing out of the zoas that close when the lights are out or if they are touched. I'm not sure if they are mutated polyps or something different all together. Any help would be appreciated.

Those are dragon eye zoas, the brown might be a vermetid worm, if it looks like a feather it could be a colonial hydroid
