Any idea what's in my zoa?

I noticed a couple of these little guys in one of my zoa colonies.

If you don't know what it is and seems to irritate the zoas, remove it promptly.

A hermit crab had just crawled over them before I took the pic. They seem to be fine. Think I might pull them anyway. Should I dip them or physically remove them?

looks like maybe a lone green star polyp.

Yea looks like a single gsp polyp to me.

Or a clove polyp of some sort. Try to remove it unless you like clove polyps...

Hydroid... ?

No idea, but if it's easy to get off I can stick it under my microscope for a picture.
