its a little softy thing on the front of the rock, just to the right of the hermit crab shell.

Looks like a kenya tree coral

I agree with shifty...its a kenya tree. They have a tendency to over run your tank if you down groom away. I would google them and make your decision from there. JMO If that were in my tank I would remove it ASAP.

I'm not worried, im going with an all softy tank, i was pretty sure thats what it was, im glad.

hopefully it grows quickly, right now its less than an inch tall.

Oh, it will. And in my tank as it spread it even chased a Condy anemone under a rock. I was sure the Condy would win, but 2 weeks on I had to pull the rock the Condy was attached to and move it away from the Kenya Tree coral.

Be wary on a full softy tank as these guys will thrive. One tree grows big and tall and then one day "poof" it pinches off a few limbs, they float away to start a new Kenya tree. One of my favorite corals for starters. But they run ramped in my 400. I'm consistently pulling them out. Just something to keep an eye on

My Xenia did the same. I gave 18 away and 18 grew more sprouted up to take their place :-} it's all good though I just rearranged the rocks lol and I like the knew arrangement better!
