It's not a shroom, nor a anemone.
Come on guys!
You are looking at a Blastomussa Merletti, one of my latest additions. Excellent coral. I had one that grew prolifically in my old tank. I had it in moderate lighting (side of a rock pillar partially shaded). It was in a moderate flow area of the tank. I spot fed it with mysis, cyclopeeze, and cut silversides. It exhibited a very fast feeding response and quickly grew from 4 heads to almost 20.
Spot feeding with a turkey baster was the most effective method I found. I would dissolve some frozen mash (mysis, cyclopeeze, silverside, shrimp, etc.) and give a quick shot to the tank (to distract the fish) then I would target feed all of my LPS corals. You do have to watch out that your shrimps don't steal the food from them. I would spot feed ~3 times a week. I also noted feeding response when I fed the tank as well.
Here is one all grown out.

That isn't a merletti at all, in the bare spots you don't see any corallites, that is a typical rock anemone....I would check on Wetwebmedia.com to see if they have anything posted in their anemone section.....I have had them before and the can become a PITA but very pretty non the less...
