yeah... that was my first thought but... what's with the black & gray tenticles thingies surrounding it...
could it be some sort of flatworm with Barnacles glowing it on top?

I have no idea what that is but it's really cool looking. Does it move about or is it stationary?

it was posted by a reefer in korea... I asked him whether it is moving or not... hasn't relied back yet...
it does seem stationary... and looks like it's growing/propagating itself with barnacles-like shells growing in the center... never seen anything like this...

I'm thinking it might be colonial tunicates.

 Looks like some kind of colony of sea squirts. A fairly unique one at that. Are they hard or soft? Sea Squirts

Yep, they're definitely tunicates.
