What exactly is this?

[Nihilus]

Is this a Palythoa/Protopalythoa or more along the lines of a Rock Flower anemone? Thanks.

Looks more like a rock anemone/flower. Does it have paly look too it as it closes up. Or does it kinda shrivel up?

 

[Nihilus]

You know what I'm not sure. This is somebody else's picture and were all kind of stumped. The shape is similar, but they don't look like Protopalythoas or Palythoas to me.

They look more like anemones tbh. Lucky they look like rock/flower ones instead of a pest one. Best thing to do. Put up a pic of then closed up.

I need a different image. If they're palys than the stalk should have what appears to be grains of sand embedded into the stalk. Do they move or are they stationary?
