Bump...anyone...are they bubbles? I know they are small but I'd like to be sure please.
 
I am seeing white lines around the mouth the one on the right.,They are btas(bubble tip anemones).
 
Ya know, the more I look the better my old eyes get lol. It def has that look to it, if they are I would think they're severely bleached out. What type of lighting, and what are you water params Simba?
 
I have a marineland reef ready LED for lighting. I was only going to take one but thsy were both attached to the rock so I'm hoping I can save them. I originally placed them on the bottom for a couple days and then moved the rock up. When I moved them the one on the left moved from the other side of the rock to where it is now. I have also given each a couple small pieces of scallops. I'll post numbers tonight after work...I'm really hoping to bring them back to good health and appreciate any help.
 
Yeah, these look like bleached bubble tip anemones (Entacmaea quadricolor.) Are the bases soft or do they have a hard internal skeleton that sticks out like fins at night? If it has a skeleton, it is a bubble coral (Plerogyra sinuosa or P. simplex)

Oops.... I didn't read the last post. If it moved, its an anemone.

Hello...just wanted to post a new pic. The one on the right has moved to the other side of the rock however they both seem to be touching still. I just took the picture tonight.
