Giant sea fans are actually gorgonian corals and despite the fact that they look like a tree or plant growth they are in essence a complex colony of tiny corals that group together to create these incredible natural wonders. They are from the species group Cnidaria which are small stinging cell creatures and include jellyfish, anemones and both hard and soft corals. They can be found around Australia in both tropical and temperate waters with this type of individual very common at the Rowley Shoals off Broome and the Great Barrier Reef off Queensland.
