Please help ID coral
Hi,
I got this Blastomussa and it came with 2 others on it. There's the green guy on the bottom growing out of a brown mat and the brain type looking guy on the left. Just wondering if anyone knows what they are b/c I figure they're still small enough that I could break the rock apart. Then again would they hurt each other if I left them on the same rock? I realize they might be too small/young to tell. Thanks so much! ps: Sorry, that's the best my camera can do... pps: I circled them in photoshop (on pic1)and named them 1 and 2, just to make it easier...

I don't think so...it's (#2) not "bubbly"...and it's got tentacles around the edge like zoos...but when you disturb it, it doesn't form a "closed bud" like zoos do, it kinda just rolls up the edges kind of like button polyps....but it doesn't have stalks like button polyps....hence why i have no idea what it is...
and I think #1 is a brain or open brain of some sort...

#1 almost looks like a type of plate coral to me.

#1 is a plate coral. When they are small they will sometimes attach to the rock like that.
#2 is probably a mushroom of some sort by the pic and the last description. Would need a closer pic for a better ID.
