Looks like it is some type of coral, if ou look closely there is some damage which looks like a calcerous substance is there. The small black dots over it could very well be the polyp cups.
I think it looks like some kind of ray or a very weird flounder.

Did it move at all?
I'm wondering if he was deep, diving air and hallucinated this?

It's quite late. Maybe we are hallucinating this.
Looks like soft coral Sinularia sp

I believe it is Blue coral or Heliopora coerulea, if my memory is correct. When it dies, the skeleton is blue but alive it is beige.
