ID anyone?

Right! It kind a looks like a zoa, yet kinda like a paly, or maybe even a strange nem. The reason I ask is I'm probably going to be getting some in a trade and neither myself, nor the trader is absolutely certin what it is. And if it's bad I don't want to risk it breaking free in my tank and setting up shop.
For example, years ago I purchased some pretty little "anem's" from another reefer who was calling them Tulip Anem's. Since they were sort of pretty, and really cheap, I bought them. A few weeks later I had our reef club founder at my house and he keyed right into them as he passed my tank. He asked me when I planned on killing "those things", pointing at my little cluster of Tulip's. I said no, I had bought them off of someone and they were called Tulip Anem's. To which he laughed at me for having purchased Majano's. He tried to sell me some of his Aptasia's after he stopped laughing.
 
I picked up a rock that had about 6 of these little things. Mine are more blue than green. When I purchased them I thought they were paly's but am now being told that they are rock anemones. I'll try to get a pic up this afternoon.

They are really cool and do not spread (if they are the same thing)
 
I am the one who is trading these. I purchased them as epizoanthus, but I am leaning towards acrozoanthus or stick polyps, although all the stick polyps I have seen have been brown. I would like to know what these are also.
 
im going with tulip anemones as well..i have seen a rock of these in my LFS go for $100. from what i have read, they are usually considered a "pest" anemone..but, they sure are pretty!
