It just looks like a common Discosoma mushroom IMO. I'm not sure if these things have distinguishing names like zoanthids do though.

If you want to get rid of some, I would surely take some.

These ones grow extremely fast. It is a Discosoma species. They also morph a lot under different lighting - try putting a couple up high and see how much different they appear.

I have tons of these covering several rocks in my tank. They spread easily and give great color to my tank.
