Gem of the Sea?

has anyone seen one before or heard of anything.

I'm guessing you're talking about that ridiculously expensive coral that's been offered by that vendor on ebay...
Is this it?

tom has two of them in his 180g..

They look to be temperate species like the strawberry anemones. I don't think they could make it in a tropical reef.

The link refers to one that's native to southern england and one that's native to monterey.
