or magano anemones. They tend to look like small colorful bubble tip anemones.
A clearer pic would help.

I think its majano also.
Heres a pic of a larger one..
That one looks like it may be in a place were it easy to remove. Just use a sharp tool of some kind, like a tooth pic or something and pry up under the foot.

they reproduce rapidly hard to keep in control like apistia and and will sting and kill other corals competeing for space in the tank. the slightest piece of tissue left on a rock or float away from the anemone will creat a new anemone so if one gets pulled up it to a powerhead it can reck havock in the tank cause a bloom of manjnaoe anemones in there.
