New Mushroom rock

Hi all.
I've picked up these mushrooms today from someone selling off some of their corals




The green mushrooms are beautiful - They take my breath away.

There is one that is different to the rest.

Can anyone identify it?

Cheers
John M

It looks like it might be a majano anemone.

Whatever kind of anemone it is, you'll need to get it off the rock before it stings your mushrooms.

They are kind of pretty but could be a pest if they multiply. I like your new shrooms!
