Search up pseudocorynactis. They are not anemones but are more closely related to mushroom corals.

I have read that some are not vigorous eaters but some are. Some are harmless and some have reported missing fish because of these. I have one and I have never lost a fish but it is in a spot where fish doesn't swim there often.

Hope that helps...

Also if I may, from the pictures, it looks like yours are quite small so I don't think they are your culprit for your fish loss... but then again.. what do I know

Thanks I appreciate that. At least I know what I'm looking for. That particular one looks a lot nicer than what were dealing with. The ones we have are a lot more pest like. But thanks again!

Since the tank is new and would be easy to remove corals and zoas im wondering if there is a fish or invert or something that would eliminate these things efficiently??
