Anyone have any idea on what this is?

seems to have tentacles with white bulbs on the end. About the size of my thumbnail.

It looks like a Pseudocorynactis mushroom coral.
I think I've heard slightly negative things. They may be on the aggressive toward other corals and or small fish. I think they have a powerful sting.
 
I'd remove it just to be safe or put in the sump/refugium if you want to keep it still. If it gets too big I'd for sure move it.

Its a ball anemone. Won't hurt anything. They will stay small and live in darker area of the tank. Will feed on smaller food items and an occasional small pod if it walks on it. Nothing to worry about.
 
Yeah, I think so too. I didn't know Pseudocorynactis was also called a ball anemone (and at first I was like what is this person talking about LOL)
Lol can’t say I knew the scientific name soo guess we both learned something lol
