Seeking Hairy Mushroom

My LFS has some large (Baseball size) brownish hairy mushrooms that are specled with neon green tentacles. They are very thick looking not paper thin like some mushrooms I have seen. Does anyone have or seen any like this? I am trying to get them to sell me one but they are in a nice display tank and they will not do it. Thanks! If you have one can you post a pic?

Hope these are what you were looking for? Sorry about the pics, they were some of my first pics with my new camera, but if you want I can get clearer ones tomorrow. They grow like none other, they have split from 3 into like 8 and they can open up to atleast 6 inch diameter. Surprisingly, the clown has not been eaten, since he treats them like anemones, but they shrink up like in the pics.

i'm gonna move him to a tank with 2 bubble tipped anemones- I got him as part of a erroneous shipment from liveaquaria. But if any fish deserved to be eaten by a shroom, it would be him as he bits your hand as soon as you break the plane of the water, so that is why I don't have more pics because it is soooo dirty! It's gonna be a ***** trying to get him out, he is fast and leaves weldts on my arms!
