do a search for mejano, I can't tell from the pic. If it is a mejano, you will want to get rid of it.

if you can get a closer pic or poke it a few times and piss it off and then take a pic, it would help ID'ing it.

I am telling you it's a mushroom. Is it soft? Can you get closer?

ok must not have poked it too much, after playin with it again it does retract sorta, and has a skeleton similar to that of a candycane coral,my thoughts, button coral.....or something along that nature. Michael, it's about the same size as the zoos, maybe a hair smaller. |

If it has a hard skeleton, I vote it is a blastomussa merletti
