This came with our live rock. It was stated as an unnamed anemone. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Welcome to R2R ! !
Ya definitely Rock flower anemone, seen one just like that at my LFS. Too bad it doesn't have the colors that some do.

Welcome to r2r!!
Thank you all! And thanks for the welcome I was thinking rock flower, but I wasn' sure since it seemed less full and not so colorful. I still think it's pretty though Can they turn more colorful with the Right type of food/care? Right now it's attached to the top of a rock at the top of the tank, and I'm wondering if we should move it down since I was just reading that they like the sides of rocks and bottom of the tank. My husband thinks it will move if it doesn' like its spot though.

That rock anemone will get darker after some time in your tank. Feed it meaty food and it will get big too.
I don't see why it can't ... they shouldn't touch, obviously! The rock flowers seem to prefer the rock/sand interface, while BTAs tend to want to be higher in the rockwork.
