Those look like zoanthids or palys, not anemones, unless I'm missing something.

D'oh! I see others answered you on another duplicate thread.

They look like Majano Anemones. They are a problem, but not as bad as aptasia. I had four and left them alone until one moved right next to my big leather and started bothering it. Then I killed them all. I thought they were pretty until one moved.
