i went diving last weekend off alligator reef in islamorada and saw huge clusters of snow white polyps... theye were beautiful. they look similar to the parazoanthus found on the red sponge (white lined sponge)from australia.. but they had longer tentacles.. anyone familiar with them?

here is a pic of the australian ones
