Picked these guys up yesterday along with a colony of zoas. The best could find doing research was button polyps but I'm not sure. They are about the size of a quarter and pretty much look like zoas on steroids.

Not button polyps. However I'm unsure what they are. They seems like some kind of majano anemone possibly.
 
+1 they look like majano. Honestly though, they are really pretty! I think you should keep them! Well until they start over running the tank anyway. Did you buy them? I mean, how much did you pay and what exactly did the store tell you?
 
Thanks for the responses guys.

AbsolutFaye- I actually got them from one of our LFS here in Okinawa, Japan. For that rock and a rock the same size with bright green zoas I paid 500 yen or about $7. The owner doesnt speak much english and I kinda figured since they were in the same tank as her zoas, that they were button polyps LOL. I think i'll keep them for a bit and keep an eye on them. They do look pretty awesome under my blues and lunar LEDs.
