Saw 3 of these pop up on my rocks and frag recently. Can anyone help confirm majano/aiptasia or friendly?

Thanks!

I have couple on my rocks as well. Not sure what they are. Seems to be an anemone of some sort. Seem friendly but can’t be certain. Following
 
Hard to tell with all the blue. It could be a ball anemone which usually isn't a problem, just keep an eye on them.
 
Thanks for the direction on the "ball anemone". Just looked some up and I believe mine look more like those than majanos. @FLG how do yours look?

The next question would be do they get out of hand like majanos or aiptasia?

I notice them pop up here and there in my system but there population will rise and fall depending on how much you feed. They dont seem to be a problem like Majanos or aptasia are. You should be alright, just monitor them. If they get out of hand Im sure you could eradicate them with similar techniques used on Aptasia or Majanos.

Ball anemone. They aren't really an anemone but a type of mushroom.

I’ll get a pic. But they look very similar to your white light pic.
