Just brought this gorgonian home a few days ago, just wondering if I’m guessing the species correctly? I think it looks like Plexaura flexuosa but am not sure. I am adding photos of the polyps both out and in to help ID.

(Water is cloudy bc I had just added phyto and fed the fish)

Just in case anyone ever comes across this thread, yes it is Plexaura flexuosa
