Tetra, I think that is a Mycedium elephantotus

It does look like M. elephantotus.

But M. Umbra also seems like an option just based on the color and slightly irregular shape, although not as likely:

the lfs showed me the same pic from a book....but not quite close enough for me...I am sure it is the same family though....
At night, I see tenacles and I fed it brine shrimp...
And I suck at taking pic....so too bad Nghia...you can come over tomorrow with your camera and help me out before we go to black coral.

you can ask in the lps forum for better luck, that's a tricky one, it has the eyes like a mycedium but the texture of an echino...
