What is this coral?

[myBrainHurts]

I've had my tank running for about 3 weeks now and a coral came out of my live rock and I'm not sure what it is. Anyone know? And it is ok to keep in a nano environment?

Looks like a leather IMO?

Toadstool leather would be my guess also.

Will it stay like this or can it change at all?

It is closed and glazed over now IMO.
They are "moody" corals but not to worry.
They are not hard to keep.
It should open up and have polyps that will make it look different then now.
Let it be for another week or two and see.
