hello I am new to saltwater aquariums and I just got my live rock and tank set up. Not sure what this mushroom looking thing is or the stuff that appeared on the rock. What should I do? IMG_5837.jpeg
 
From what i can tell it looks like a Discoma sp. mushroom "coral". Not too unusual to have one pop up off some rock. Probably the easiest hardiest coral out there.

Coral can appear from live rock?

Is it an only live rock tank? Or are there corals in there as well.

Pic of my fleshy limpet, for reference. Hard to tell on your photo, does it look like this?
