Default ID please.coral?

Could anyone tell me what this is. It was a hitchhiker in my rock and popped out of nowhere. The picture is a few weeks old and it's about 3/4inch tall now and looks the exact same. Thanks in advance

Looks like some kind of a leather and those things taking over your rocks look like clove polyps. I had them in my tank and they took over everything. Got to the point that I wanted to take my tank down. Good luck with them and hopefully they're not as evasive in your tank as they were in mine.
