I thought this was a majano but it doesnt have the bubbly tips like a lot of the pictures I've seen. It looks similar to a bta with the long tentacles but it doesnt have the white marks around the mouth.

Very interesting. It looks a lot like a majano, but not exactly. I would be curious to see what it does in time.

I'm guessing they will keep spreading if I let them go.

I did nuke the 2 small ones a few days ago with kalk and there was a small coral skeleton left. Do Majanos leave this?

Majanos don't have a coral skeleton,could be a young torch coral.Can you get a pic of the foot/base of the one in the first pic in the liverock.

The smooth part is the foot in the first pic. I think the small one is the offspring of the large one due to the coloration and you can see the foot of the small one too.
