I got a few pounds of live rock from Florida a few months ago and this coral came attached. It has a hard skeleton and green tentacles that have little balls on the tips

Almost looks like a type of ball anemone

@ISpeakForTheSeas any idea? i thought it was a ball anemone but it's not as translucent and it has a skeleton
Maybe some sort of hairy mushroom, the ball at the end of the tentacles is why I went to ball anemone
