Exclamation Please help identify this

So I bought this small piece of live rock from someone on this site a week or so ago for the red mushrooms and polyps on it…when I we went to pick it up I was told a frogspawn moved onto it (now I have a green frog spawn that doesn’t quite look like this guy)…and now after a week or so he has moved a little around the piece or rock, and now split into too guys!

So is it a frog spawn? Any ideas?? Is it good or bad???????????



This is when i frist got it




The i posted since my frogspawn that i have never does this..and i thought it was a bit odd and might help identify what it is



now the two little guys that slip tonight.

You may be a bit quick with the congrats. Looking at the size of it I would say more likely a majano anemone which look just like bubbletips but don't get much bigger then a nickel and can take over a tank... just like aiptasias

At first I thought BTAs because they look big but now I'm not sure, the face isn't quite right. Big majanos I guess.
