I was snorkeling after some really rough surf (3 days straight) at my normal place and found these sea fans rolling in the sandy bottom. We gathered these 2 up and brought them home. Thought they were dead like the others we had gotten, then about 2 days later noticed the thin blue one had something growing on it. The next day both of them were fully opened up. I have no idea what type of fans they are but they look really cool. The 3rd pic is of what I assume is some type of barnacles, they are growing on a seed pod of some type that washed up at the high tide mark on the beach.


Thanks for any ideas.

Definitely barnacles....goose neck maybe? They will be hard to keep alive unless you feed them, they are filter feeders.

any guess on the fans?
