Mushroom Feeding?

Just wanted to share this pic of my rhodactis shroom... I believe it's feeding on a Spectrum pellet. I was hand feeding some other corals, and one of the pellets fell onto the shroom... a little while later, I notice it shaped in a ball.

I'm fairly new to this hobby (< 6 months)... not sure if this is common, but I thought it was pretty cool!

I would have thought so as well, but I've never heard of anyone feeding mushrooms. This include rics and yumas?
