Aquarium Advice Newbie
I'm a new reefer. Started in March 06.
I bought these ??? cheap at the not LPS. See photos. I was told they were mushrooms. Upon further investigation and inspection I'm not sure what they are. They are about 1 inch tall and the disc is about the same. The "tentacles" or bumps around the circumference are less than 1/16 of an inch high. Fewer bumps are seen as you get closer to the center where a peak occurs and the mouth is located. Note that there does not seem to be any skeleton and only about half the base is attached to the rock. Day or night there is no great change in shape (swelling or shrinking or longer tentacles) but upon occasion it will loosely close like an anemone or button polyp.
