Please help ID

Hi Everyone, can someone help me ID this? It appeared on a piece of live rock I purchased with a bubble tip anenome. I've found three of them (the thing with the pink on it). I apologize for the picture, its the best I can get as it's in a less than ideal location for photographing. Thanks in advance!

Kinda looks like a closed up zoa or a really mad shroom.

If your referring to the thing in the middle of the picture Its a closed up bubble tip in not the greatest health.

Should I remove them? They all three look like that. I've had the rock and big anenome in the tank for several weeks and just saw these little guys.

That's up to you, but they seem kinda harmless to me.

Kinda looks like a ball anemone which is actually a mushroom not an anemone

I had that slight thought too, but wanted to leave it to people with more nem experience. Aren't BTA's splitters?

I’d double check and make sure it’s not a Ball Anemone. Like I mentioned earlier in the posts looks very similar. I’m have a problem with them now. They are Beautiful but they are related to rabbits. Probably my fought but they are starting to pop up everywhere and def kill whatever they touch. My tube worms are all moving as far away as they can.
I’ve seen them for awhile and just started getting nervous about it this week. Like I said if you could have 4-5 that would be awesome. Very interesting looking MushAnemone. I’m not sure what kills them or what my next step is going to be. Picture doesn’t do it justice as far as looks but I’ll try and get a better one. I got one I put in my experimental tank, I put things that I know aren’t completely good for the DT in there. It had moved into a empty snail shell so was easy to transport.

At night with my blue light flashlight. You can see it’s mouth and it’s surrounded by golden balls then a little further out you can see a circle of Blueballs. Very 3D looking. Almost looks like you’re looking through a fallacy of stars and a planet/moon....
