Def a baby plate. The start attached to the rock then once they reach a certain size, pop off. I've seen them before that just keep popping off babies for years. Pretty awesome freebie. Although it looks like that soft coral is gonna overtake it soon, so keep an eye on it and pop it off before that happens.
