The Rock Anemone is a member of the Phymanthidae family. Originating from the Caribbean, this anemone is found in a wide array of colors, with the oral disc often being a different color than the rest of the body. The oral disc lacks tentacles, but the tentacles on the body are often beaded in appearance.

The two pictured in this thread also have a pair of anemone shrimp hosting on them.
