Looks like a big Toadstool Leather, probably a Sacrophyton.

Very nice undemanding corals.

this is the actual specimen I am trying to ID...It is in a 125g tank that I am going to look at on Thursday...the size looks to be about 2 feet in width...

not a good picture...but...

Worst case it I will find out on Thursday for sure...or tonight when I talk to the owner of the tank again...I am sure he can tell me...but he is unavailable right now and I am trying to make an ID list of what is in the tank...

here is the full width shot...very fuzzy...wish I would have gotten a little better picture from him...but he is only 60 miles from me...still going to be a tough move to get everything out, tank broke down and set back up at my place...

Looks like a large toadstool to me also.

not sure large is a good name! that thing is fricken huge...hopefully it (they) will close up and skrink a little bit when I have to take it out during the tank break down...heck...it is going to take up a 20g rubbermaid container by itself!

from the picture it looks like a leather toadstool however he did say it was a corral not an annemone right? because of the size and since you have only seen a picture i wonder if it could be a carpet?

yeah it is a huge Toadstool...I am a little bummed as the older gentleman that was selling this tank complete got confused on who he was talking to on the phone...and sold it to another person thinking it was me...I guess it wasn't meant to be...saved me a lot of money though! and part of me was not wanting to get a "ready-made" tank...takes a lot of the fun out of it! But...saves THOUSANDS of $$$!! Told the gentleman...no blood, no foul...and was glad he was able to get it sold before his health declined further...
