Need help to ID Anemone

Please help me ID these Anemone.

They came in some LR that I bought from someone who tore his tank down. They started appearing about two days after i introduced the LR into my tank. So far one of the redish pink ones have snagged and killed a pygmy angel fish. They're pretty small, largest one is about the size of a nickel and the smallest is just under a dime size.
They're really beautiful, but i want to know if they're going to harm any Zoa's that I want to add later. Are they Aptaisia? Also, I have three peppermint shrimp in the same tank with them and they don't touch them.


Thanks!!

They look like Beadlet anemones to me. The orange one is not a color variant I am aware of but that don't mean nothin really. I do think they are beadlets though. They are a temperate species that have been known to survive in tropical tanks. That is what probably caused the fading of color. The reproduce by splitting. Of course this ID is just my opinion.
