Found on coral and rocky reefs in areas of slow currents, also very turbid areas often branching out from vertical walls and hanging from cave ceilings.
The bigger fan corals often have a corkscrew effect on the main stems.
They feed on plankton.
Length - 1m

Most soft corals have no true skeleton and so their bodies are flexible
