Can you describe it? I can't see it well from this monitor. Does it have a skeleton?
My first guess was Pseudocorynactis but they don't have skeletons.

It is round in shape has what looks to be a beak in the middle and perfect little tenticles all the way around its pink in colur with little green tips on the tenticles it takes mysis shrimp and folds up on itself i thought maybe it was an anem it does not move it reproduced by shooting out and arm then retracting it ,

Thanks BG I did a search and I think they may be pseudo ,s I will continue to monitor them and see if they get any bigger for perhaps a better photo thanks again.

From the description it sounds like a Pseudocorynactis. Details of this animal are that it typically lives out of the light, even under rocks, they often have an iridescent green coloration only when viewed at certain angles, and the tentacles are clear and end in a white ball instead of a point. The more you feed the faster they reproduce.
