Don't know what that is, but I'm following along to find out. Looks like a soft coral of some sort.

Red hairy mushroom?

Yes its the same consistency, but the polyps are long like a toadstool

Red hairy mushroom?

It lives in the sand and i think it uses his foot to stick it in to the sand.

I'm stumped. Following along for the answer.

A mushroom is more likely to attach to a rock than live in the sand. Just sayin'
