That's a carpet anemone. They require very high lighting, and are not reef safe as they will often eat your fish, and even their own clowns! They are one of the more easy to keep anemones, but still a challenging animal (more so than most corals).

EEK! its a red anemone (carpet I think), it will be massively expensive hard to care for and requires nerves of steel and a total disregard of fish life to own lol, its a beauty for sure

Gosh it is too bad they are so evil. It is such a stunning color of red. Very beautiful. I had a green one once that was a freak. I eventually got rid of it because it was such a PITA.
