Default Help me identify this baby coral?? A few video captures

I hope someone can help me identify this. I am assuming this is some type of baby coral...

I am thinking it might be a Baby Bubble Coral, maybe Frogspawn, or even a long tentacle plate...

Frogspawn will drop heads if unhappy. I'm not sure if they do it to reproduce. You may want to loosely mount it to a rock to see what it will do. If it just blows around your sand bed it will not survive

I was just doing a bit of investigation and this one way in which they reproduce. It is not just one head, but a small colony, about 10 heads...There are a few more little colonies on the Frogspawn. I am fairly certain it is not unhappy, it has nearly doubled in size since we got it...
Thanks, Jason...
