Thanks for the input. Anyone else think differently out there?

I agree, so .....tell me the best way to get rid of these things....

Looks like an Aiptasia. There are numerous ways to rid your tank of them. One is pepperment shrimp... that's if they cooperate. Also, i think you can inject them with a solution of some sort to kill them.. Dont' rip them out... that will cause them to reproduce.
