I went to an aquarium store and saw they had a bucket with live rock, a few had some corals in very poor shape like this ?mushroom? It was very pale in color when I first got it. Hence why I don't know what mushroom/softie it is and it wasn't sold as a coral.. just as 'live rock'. It was a bargain at $2 AUD ($1.3USD).
First 2 are when I put it in my tank for the first time.

The last 2 are now, it has an orange rim and is blue/green in coloration. (blue photo is raw unedited)

Ricordea mushroom
 
Looks like it might be an eclectus mushroom
 
@TD82cat might be right, hard to tell. Good find either way.
