Alright, because I knew this one would be too easy, I intentionally made the picture blurry so it would be a little harder. (As far as you know.)

Any idea what that green coral is? It's soft and appears to be attached by a "stem" of sorts, as the whole round top part sways in the current.
 
Could very well be. Certainly moves much like a mushroom. It is just so more ornate than the mushrooms I've seen. It's clearly not a ricordea, but it has very prominent "bumps" on it similar to one (just not the same kind or in the same pattern).
 
Those all look similar, but the pictures I'm seeing look enough different that I don't think that's what it is. Of course, could just be that it's still small.
 
Looks like a small hairy mushroom to me.

Edit: Looks just like the ones I got from purple gorilla.
 
BUM BUM BUUUUUUMMMMM! This rock came from.....Purple Gorilla! And the closer I look, the more the bumps look like small versions of hairy mushroom tentacles.
 
Awesome. I love mine. I have a small colony of them. My biggest one is almost four inches in diameter.
 
I have a hairy mushroom that is a good six inches when fully open. That is what your small one looks like amd mine is the same color as the one you have.

I also bought a couple rocks from him. They were covered in hairy mushrooms,that's what it looks like to me also. Mine are green and beautiful
 
Yeah my guess would have been a baby hairy mushroom. I have one that is about a 4" diameter and a very dark grey with neon purple tips.
