Coral ID

[b1ink]

Hi All,

Happy new year!

I have attached a picture of my toadstool leather coral. My question is, what is growing on the side of it? is it a different coral? will it hurt the leather? should i try to remove it?

The second picture is of an acropora coral but i dont know which one specifically. are you able to ID it?

Thanks for any help

I'm not sure about the acropora, but can you try and take a few more pictures of the other mystery coral? At first glance it kind of looks like a mushroom of some sort, but it's kind of hard to tell. Does it have a hard skeleton at all?
