Question Help in Anemone Identification

Hello all....

I bought a piece of live rock with some green mushrooms on it and it came with an Anemone hitchhiker...I've been watching it for about 2 months now (time I've had the rock) and it's getting bigger and it even has an additional two heads growing out of the sides...it was about the size of a pencil eraser when I first got it and it's triple the size now. It's purple and only seems to open at night. I tried different locations in the tank with more/less light/flow to try to get it to open during the day to no luck.It also takes mysis everyother day eagerly, It pulls it in pretty fast... I looked through out this site and other websites but found nothing similiar.....Doesnt look to be the pest variety.. Any input anyone?
