These are 2 small brown polyp's under my red mushrooms. These are the only 2 I've soon so far , I have small cluster of Zoa's but this looks nothing like them.

Can you get a better picture? It may be a feather duster or aiptasia
 
I hope this one is a lil better.

Look up aiptasia on google. Those tentacles look a little short in the pic. Could be because it's blurry, but just double chekx.
 
I picked it out and moved it to get a better pic, I agree it dose have really short lil arms compared to pic's
 
K so after a much closer look don't think is aiptasia, maybe polyp...Zoa maybe ?

Green Button polyp, member of the Palythoa family. Just not very green from being under the mushrooms.
