This is the first critter that I cannot run down. Hopefully, someone hear can help me out!

Thanks!

Looks like Discosoma mushrooms. Also that's some nice live rock. I would love to have some of the Dictyota algae (green-blue stuff to the right of the mushrooms) in my macroalgae tank haha but I don't think it's worth buying so I'll just look for it on some LR
 
This critter moves around the tank. This is the first time I saw it on a horizontal surface to get a good photo. I'm not so sure it is a mushroom. I was thinking some kind of nudi or slug, but it just doesn't look like any of those.

Thanks for the compliment on the live rock. I got it from arcreef.com. They grow it out in the ocean so it came with corals, sponges and various other sea life attached.
 
Unless it's a flatworm or something I'm pretty sure it's a mushroom. They can scoot around a little bit if they don't like where they're at. Do you think you could get a video of it moving?
 
This evening, I will see if I can find it and get it to move. I happen to see it last night about 11:30 as I was going up to bed. It is interesting what goes on in a tank after the lights go out!
