    Thanks to all that helped identify what I thought was aiptasia but were in fact some kind of Nudibranch. There are now roaming the tank and are fun to watch .. Unfortunately I did find one aiptasia and plan to spend Saturday getting rid of it. I think I also have a few (3-5) baby starfishes .. not sure if these are reef safe and need to find out. Nice color though.

    Those starfish are fine for a reef.

    Asterina stars,most likely,won't grow very large and are no problem.

    Certainly looks like a nudi, pagojoe knows alot about stuff like that - he'd probably be able to tell you the exact species and what it eats. PM him.
