just realised today that theres these green dots on my backwall. They are neon green/translucent. It looks like a coral but i have no coral that looks like it. Its coloration is close to my rainbow pocillopora but its most certainly soft. Up to a centimeter big. Have spotted about 5.

Anyone any clue??

I have like 5-6 of these on my rock (but in pink/white) they have bigger tentacles and close up at night. U think these might be spawns?
 
They will def breed if the conditions are right yes
Well turns out its not an anemone, its coral.

I tried scraping and its hard. It has polyps. And a skeleton. Corals can split from their skeletons right? Can corals spawn? It has similarities to stylopora/pociloporas.

Someone explain pls

Well that’s def cool.
And yes , stylo are known to spawn in some tanks.
I’ve spoken to a few folks who refus to have em because they spread.
 
Do you have any pocillipora in your tank. They spawn readily. You might not want not want babies everywhere. I regret adding the pocci to my tank.

That’s what it looks like to me. I also made that mistake and had pocci babies everywhere. Never again.
 
I do have a Rainbow pocillopora. Its also closest from the looks of it. Actually i didn't see that much of growth on my poci. Is that a sign of good health or maybe of distress like splitting anemones?

As a new reefer i kinda enjoy them spreading. ill pick em up and grow frags:)
