These Sea Fans are not a protected species. They are grown through aquaculture.
The structure of a gorgonian colony varies. The suborder Holaxonia skeletons are formed from a flexible, horny substance called gorgonin. The suborder Scleraxonia variety of gorgonians are supported by a skeleton of tightly grouped calcareous spicules. There are also species which encrust like coral.
There is a picture cord on the reverse for hanging.
