Is this some type of gorgonian? It has bunch of little polyps that wave in the current.

yup, gorg there.

look this up and see if this matches what you have. Plexaurella grandiflora, Slit-pore sea rod
 
hmmmmm looks a lil like both. The polyps look kinda like tiny pulsing xenias.
 
Any idea what this coral is

+1 plexaurella sp.

corky sea finger is briareum abestinium....it's not a gorgonian...it takes over dead gorgs that's why it looks like a gorg.

here's my slit-pore sea rod...one of my fave gorgs in my tank
