Default Please ID this coral/pest

It came on a frag plug and six months later it's invaded 50% of my rocks. Any idea what it is and how I can eradicate it, are there any fish or invert that would consumer these polyps?

They look like red clove polyps instead of the usual blue ones. I hope someone else can more accurately id them

Don't think They're a type of clove, I hear they might be a type of gorgonian? They spread faster than gsp and grow out like clove polyps.
