It’s all in the title, new tank had some live rock added in and there’s a few of these small orange anemones growing on it,

they don’t seem to be either of the two big bad ones, so what are they?

It doesn’t seem to be the rose bulb anemone, but after some searching I’m fairly confident it might be a ball anemone of some sort? I can’t take another picture right now as it has decided to retract, though if that would still be useful do say. (Though blue light is still on, I didn’t think the picture was too blue though?)

If it would be useful here is how it looks now. ( this picture is definitely way too blue though)

Looks like a ball anemone (actually a type of mushroom), but could be a few other species.

When you can, get a pic in white light, and I can tell you for sure what it is.
