It either looks like a manjano anemone to me (pest), or perhaps red bubble algea (pest). Emerald (mithrax) crabs will eat the bubble algea, but nothing that I know of will eat manjanos.

don't worry about it. COuld even be a stray decent anemone. These things come and they go. Peppermint shrimp are pretty good at eliminating pest anemones, if that's what this turns out to be.
