It appears to be some kind of Anemone. It doesn't look like Aiptasia and its mostly translucent but has hint of neon green to it depending on how the light hits it. I tried to get the best pics I could. Is it possibly a torch coral baby? lol...I have a torch coral in the tank but I thought the split into multiple heads....not spit out random babies. Any help would be great. Thanks Q

Many consider them not one of the pest anemones. I had some in my old tank, they were colorful, stayed still and took very long to grow into more. Many don't risk it and eradicate them.
 
Awesome thanks. Are they dangerous? I kind of like the look of it but if its a pest I will be forced to remove. At least now I have an identity and can do some good research on them. Thanks again.
 
Cool thanks for the thread. I only have one atm and willl let him live. If he starts killing anything or becoming a problem I will aptasia-x him out of my tank :)
