Hi i just got my first NEM. Its green with red tipa . I had it for 3 days now fed it once and its doing well so far . I just have noticed today's that there are two more NEM that come of the rock that i bough the nem from. What are they how do i care for them. One of them is neon green looks like bubble and the other one is blue. They look healthy as well mouth closed and foot not torn or anything. The pic is not the best will try to do better one later

Only see one of the two. It's a bleached BTA. Probably was hiding inside the rock or under the rock with little or no light for sometime. Thus it's bleached out. If you maintain proper water quality, it might recover and color backup.
 
The neon green is a BTA, however it is bleached hence the color. As it gets acclimated to your lights, it’s color will darken and then you will be better able to tell what kind of BTA.
The other one, I can’t really tell based on your pictures, however, it looks like an unhappy stressed Anemone as well. It also, looks like it is suffering from lack of light deprivated to cultivate the much needed zooxanthellae, which is responsible for the color and health of your Anemone.
