Trying to identify this coral, surprise that came on the back of a colt coral frag. Possibly a Ricordia?

Wouldn't the colt coral be showing ill effects if it was an anemone? The base of the specimen in question is literally touching the colt coral, and it seems like it has been there for some time. Not sure how mobile Majano are, but this guy hasn't moved at all either.

Seems to be soft for sure, it retracted a bit when I touched it which makes me think the tentacles aren't too substantial. It's overall a deep bottle green color with tan/purple tentacles. I like the overall look of it so far, and would hate to rip it out only to find it's something pretty cool later on.

It has been removed, though now I'm wondering if anyone knows where to get a nice bottle green mushroom? I loved the color...
