I have several gorgonians that I need to identify.

I would love to get them ID'ed to a species level, but I realize that is often impossible. But I figured I would use the wonderful resource of Reef Central to help me get closer.
I dont even know if these are photosynthetic or not.

I have had them several months now, some are thriving and others are being taken over with hair algae. I pick it off, but on some it just seems to be really prone to it.

There are 16 still alive.

I dont have the greatest pictures, but Ill take some more. The photos are from when they first came in.

Thanks so much!
