What Might this be?

[Renton777]

Any ideas what this might be? It was a hitch hiker and has grown to a radius of about a silver dollar over the course of 2 years or so. The animal seems to be rather resilient. I posted it here thinking it is a soft coral, but for all i know it could be an anemone.

Hope i attached the image correctly, still learning.

Thanks,
Nathan
