Their common name is Strawberry nems or anemone.

Does it look like this?

 

[dragonfisher33]

sort of looks like it. it's very small as you can see that it's not bigger than the zoa

 

[Lionfish Lair]

Didn't realize I could make the picture bigger. Yes, that's them.

 

[dragonfisher33]

can't find much info about it. is it good or bad?

Were you just doing something to that rock to tick off the zoas? If not, it's the strawberry nems that are stinging on them and I would remove them. I, myself, would remove them anyways, because there's a chance it will compete with your zoas. You paid for a zoa rock, you don't want an entire rock covered in nems come next year.
