I had a hitch hiker coral when I bought my live rock and thought it was a long hair ric (looks similar to your first pic) but had since been told it's likely a furry mushroom because it will sometimes curl inwards into a pumpkin shape (a trait of mushroom corals I'm told). Anyways, he's been about the same size since I got him months ago.
I only direct feed once a month with reef chili. Its a product sold out of bulkreefsupply. Weather it contributes to stuff like the mushrooms splitting I dont know. Other than that my tank gets a shot of ocean nutrition formula 1 and 2 and clyopl-eeze daily. Mysis once a week.

As far as fish I have a coral beauty, yellow tang, mandrin, paired cinnamon clowns, lawn mower blenny, and a diamond gobby. Only 4 of them actually eat food I feed the tank so the corals have a lot to snag for themselves. I let the skimmer take care of the rest.
