Gorgonian Identification

[Wille]

Hi,

Can anyone help me ID this Gorgonian ?
It was sold to me as a photosynthetic gorgonian but I want to make sure...



Perhaps an Orange Spiney Gorgonian ?

Welcome to R2R, google menella and see what you think, this is my red with gold polyps.

Thank you so much Simon.
I fear you might be right.
Will have to take it back to my LFS as I don´t have the capacity to feed it.

Thanks again.
