They look like pretty yellow polyps... But I could be mistaken. Are they stiff or do they sway in the current?
No peanut gallery remarks Is this a close up picture? What is their approximate diameter?

Yeah I am glad they are yellow polyps.i was getting a little worried that it was Aiptasia,because these polyps multiply fairly quickly.i bought them about 2 months ago,there was 11 of them,now there is about 30 of them
