This little guy. I don't know what it is. It looks like some kind of mushroom. But it has a foot like an anemone. It moves on its own. It's the little brown guy. When it's foot down it just looks like a tiny mushroom.

It does look like a corallimorph, mushrooms do have stocks and are capable of move around slowly.

I had seen that and I had looked up what you suggested too.
It's top part the umbrella looking part (don't know what to call it sorry) is really thick. It's not flimsy thin it's thick like the mushrooms you would put on pizza

Rhodactis can be thicker. There are a lot of different types of Corallimorphs.. Softcorals, octocorals do not have the ability move around. It does not look like anemone and it's not a stony coral, so that leaves Corallimorphs, but I have been wrong before.
