Could any pros please ID this "polyps" species?
Bought a live rock locally with "polyps". Are these really polyps?
They are scattered and only 1/4" big. Could any pros please ID this "polyps" species? |

They look kind of like Fire & Ice Zoanthids.

Yes, they are polyps. Zoanthids to be more exact.

This is first coral in my new 3 month old tank. From what I read, polyps are more packed together and bigger. This link taught me even more. Thank you very much.
