sea fan
A sea fan is a type of sessile colonial marine animal, a variety of soft coral, that is shaped like a fan due to the way its polyps grow on a flat, flexible skeleton. It is often brightly coloured and found in the shallow waters of tropical and subtropical oceans. The sea fan uses tiny, finger-like tentacles to catch plankton and microscopic organisms from the water which serve as its primary food source.
Webster Dictionary
Sea fan
any gorgonian which branches in a fanlike form, especially Gorgonia flabellum of Florida and the West Indies
