I have had my LR for over week and it had a 2 of these on it when I got it. I noticed that the 2 that were on it have seemed to have grown alittle bigger and I see 1 or 2 more appearing. What are they? Are they good/bad?
 
Looks like an aiptasia to me. They are not good. YAou should probably get a some peppermint shrimp or Joes Juice. I am sure u will get more help from the pros soon. HTH
 
I am thinking about getting some pep shrimp. Will they be safe with soft corals and Anemone? If so how many would you recommend for a 55 gallon I have 1 cleaner shrimp, 1 clown, 1 damsel, and a diamond goby?

As long as you get true peppermint shrimp they won't harm your corals, there are species that look very similar that aren't reef safe. I would get a couple and see how they do.
