I am thinking a type of xenia or anthelia (this seems like a good guess Saltwater Aquarium Corals for Marine Reef Aquariums: Waving Hand - Blue) or glove polyp (Glove Polyp).

If you can take picture with polyps retracted. If pipe organ it will have skeleton. If a clove or star polyp it will look like jelly or gum stuck onto a rock.
