Question Help with Critter ID

Noticed on the rock this morning before the lights came on a very bizarre creature. I see nothing even close to it in either of my Delbeek and Sprung.

It is about the size of a 50 cent piece and flat like a little mushroom coral, it is soft to touch and moves when probed, it appears to be black, and has a small piece of tan shell in the middle of its mass. It is hanging around some pulsating xenia.

You thoughts and recommendations are greatly appreciated.

As an addendum, I don't have any access to a camera, its a 75 gallon reef tank, and there have been no additions to the tank in over a year.
