Large Mushroom Id

Can someone give me an ID on this mushroom. Its large about 3-4 inches in diameter. Got him on a piece of LR. It was the only coral in the original owners tank, the "show piece". Its neat. With the id, do you know if they are known to split/bud? Can be fragged?

looks like a reg. mushroom to me. you can cut it like a pizza and put the pieces in the tank and more mushrooms will grow all over. when you remove the mushroom from where it is now a new one should re-grow there too.

I met Steve (1320wrx) last night, to pick up his clams. Upon looking at one of his tanks, my wife says, "Hey, he has one of those mushrooms". It turns out to be Discosoma Neglecta, a.k.a Green and Blue Caribbean Bullseye Mushroom or umbrella mushroom. Thanks Steve for helping solve this mystery. Now, to figure out if/how to frag it. "Honey, hand me the scapel and blow torch....Muhahahahaha"
