Help identify this anemone

They're becoming quite prolific in my tanks and would like to know what type they are.

They are bad news. Majano pest anemones. They are worst than Aptasia IMO because nothing will eat them. In large tanks aptasia can be biologically control but not Majano.

Yes, or if they are isolated enough, remove the entire rock.
