Anyone know exactly what Coral this is? It looks like a mushroom but we have a few. They are totally attached to frag plugs, not like a mushroom Coral would be at all. Thanks for any help!

Looks like a Rhodactis sp. Mushroom.
 
Agree with it being a Rhodactis sp. It is a species of "Mushroom" coral, but the oral disc is held very flat against what it's attached to versus some other Genera that will extend more.

Ok thank you. I've seen a lot of mushrooms but never ones that cling so tightly so it had me a tad befuddled. Thanks again
 
do you know if its a stony coral
 
Looks like a rhodactis to me. They tend to be the ones that look fuzzy due to their vesicles
