Very hard to tell if it's going to survive or not. This look like a photosynthetic specie as it is not very colorful. Usualy the photosythetic are light brown or tan in color or bluish with brown polyps. The non-photosynthetic are usualy very brightly colored and very hard to keep while the photosynthetic are easy to keep.

Hard to tell what specie it is though, but does look photosynthetic. Often the photoshythetic gorgonians will retract their polyps when the light goes out and might reopen them after a few minutes or not.
