A
beautiful photosynthetic gorgonian that features a deep purple
color with soft delicate irregular branches. This species is
similar to the purple plume but is a bit stiffer and typically
grows more horizontal. Gorgonians regularly
shed tissue to remove buildup of sediment and algae from forming
on their skeleton. All photosynthetic gorgonians require 4-5 watts
per gallon to
thrive. Like many corals it also filter feeds, so weekly feeding
is recommended for optimal health. We offer single specimens mounted on
reef plugs that are 6-8"
tall.
