Honestly these look more like a Euphyllia species than mushrooms, do they have a skeleton? The tentacles look too much like a frogspawn they're very inflated. If not they're probably Rhodactis indosinensis. Also just want to point out that Ricordea is a genus of "mushroom" corals as well.

Thank you. They are soft so your call on Rhodactis looks dead on.
