Coral Identification and Care

[BHRay]

Hi, I won this cutting at a marine club meeting that I attended recently. I have no idea what it is. Would like to i.d. it so that I can care for it. The tentacles come out only after the pc's come on. Plz ignore the shrimp, he's such a ham in front of the camera.
Thx

It's a little unclear, but my guess is an encrusting gorgonian. They are pretty easy care, good light and some surgy current should keep them quite happy. Don't place them near any prized corals, they can overgrow things pretty quickly once they get going.

Is it possible to post a bigger, or closer picture, to get a better view of the polyps?

Here is a picture of it right after the lights come on (baldy). I am having trouble getting a good picture at full extension. Will continue to try.

How's this? TUrned off ph's and cropped pic to fit forum guidelines.

Yep, I'll stick with my original opinion.
