Click image for larger version Name: ImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1413647069.858438.jpg Views: 115 Size: 184.1 KB ID: 253310 I got this about a month ago from a local frag swap. They said that it is photosynthetic, but I still feed it every once I a while just in case and it is growing nicely. Any ideas what type it is? Thanks.

What you have appears to be a gorgonian in the Rumphella family. They are photosynthetic but like most corals will benefit from supplemental feedings.
