I wouldn't worry about that one.....the one thats lurking behind the rock will be your real nemesis....LOL
 
It is cespitularia. It is a nice looking coral, but be aware that it can be a fast grower with the ability to reach across a rock to attach to another.
 
Thanks everyone, and yea it started growing on glass overnight and I peeled it off I might put it on back right
