The polyps look similar, but I do believe that the polyps come out of the sponge, I think pipe organ is a sponge with those polyps coming out of it...

Pipe organs have "stalks" and the polyps grow out of them, then they die and the stalk continues to grow and more polyps come.
and number 6 is not a cats paw.
