Any help in identifying this guy will be greatly appreciated. It came on a live rock I bought. Only a few days after adding it to the tank, I've noticed my toad stool not coming out at all anymore. So I'm guessing this guy stings. I've never her seen anything that looks like it before. Its soft, branchy, brown with white speckles and stripes. The ends of each branch is furry looking with lots of prickly things. Research isn't bringing anything up so thanks for any input.

Could be any number of soft corals, perhaps a Kenya tree. Typically they are harmless.
 
Thanks!! I looked up a Kenya tree and I believe u are correct. A Kenya tree doesn't look like I thought. Now I'm wondering what the other thing is my local store sold me as a Kenya tree. LoL. Thanks for the help. It does look like the Kenya tree online.
