i was given these guys for my pest pico tank- they are about an inch wide. You can see comparison to the zoas beneath

Are these the grandis giant palys?
 
+1. DONT get them, they aren't cool, they're demonic. They'll take over your tank in seconds.
 
Are cinnamon palys considered invasive too?
 
IMO, most palys are invasive. I try not to get them for my 75g tank, but for my pico, any rejects are welcomed!
 
Is there a safe way to remove them? I had some Paly's take over some primo real estate, they're not really bothering anything currently, but figured this is as good of a thread to ask in case the OP is going to remove them. I know either Zoas or Palys can cause blindness if mishandled!
 
@Ocelaris It's best to wear gloves and goggles when handling them. And a mask to cover the mouth.

Probably best to take the rock out entirely and toss/sell/give away. Otherwise, cutting/peeling the paly's away is the next best bet
