Hi all,

I am holidaying in the Canary Islands off the west coast of Africa. Found something…would love an ID on it.

It looks like a soft coral but I have no idea.

The “corals” are approximately 5mm in width but vary in length.

Thanks all! They look quite incredible. Wouldn’t mind seeing if they are available in my home country.

Thank you for that great article, I will take on board the advise and not seek out specimens as they are highly likely to fail. The ability to keep corals does not equate to keeping tunicates. It’s a shame as they are quite beautiful.
