Default Coral ID

We found this little piece of whatever it is, in the rubble in the refuge...

It glows bright green, so it's obviously phosphorus... But what is it?!

I have glued it to a frag rock, but I'm not even sure it's a piece of coral...

Haha yeah, do you have any idea what it is man? In your professional opinion, is it a piece of coral? It's just a round ball, but definitely phosphorus.

It's hard.. It has small tentacles coming off of the one side right now. I would have to say it's a bunch of small polyps around the whole thing.. Flat, not popping out.. But so hard to say!
