Found this in the Glen Rose Formation (Medina County Texas).  Is it a rock or fossil?  Thanks so much.

Looks too irregular to be a fossil coral, but it is a bit strangely porous for it to be a non-coral sedimentary rock! It looks like there's some crystallization in there too. I love it.

That is a rock, not a fossil.
