Looks more like some species of coral to me. Almost resembles GSP but it’s hard to tell with just single polyps. Definitely not aiptasia though, I can see some of them are grown together on one mat.

I don’t think its aiptasia caused i dealed with alot of aiptasia in the past lol.
What do u guys call the coral that spread like crazy on rocks? i forgot the name.
 
Yeah thats green star polpys, you may be thinking of the quick spreading as the blue clove polpys, but im pretty positive its GSP
 
if you wanted to, take a screwdriver and hammer the tinny pieces of rock out that its attached to, or you can let it grow and do that later so they dont end up drifting in the current.

Hmmm... that second picture does look like it mighty actually be a separate polyp of some sort growing off the main stalk. Maybe, and hopefully, that is a coral. Keeping fingers crossed!
