Hi Kristine,

I found an online journal article about a soft coral that lives in Antarctic oceans. The coral is called Gersemia antarctica. It is a deposit feeder in the soft sediment communities of McMurdo Sound, Antarctica. Maybe you've learnt whereabouts in Antarctica that is in your project. The article doesn't have much useful information in it for what you need but you might want to have a look at it or reference it in your project, the address is:
