Macroalgae For Marine Reef Aquariums: Purple Sea Fan Gorgonian ecosystems
   

 Sea Fan Gorgonian (Leptogorgia Sp.)

This species is a NPS gorgonian commonly found growing attached to hard bottom in depths of 20-40 ft. We only collect the branching variety which is much nicer than the cylindrical whips of the same species. The coloration is usually purple but some specimens are reddish-orange. This beautiful non-photosynthetic gorgonian features thin delicate irregular branches with white polyps. NPS animals need to be fed regularly with a quality coral formula, plankton or prepared food. Sizes vary between 4-8" mounted on a reef plug.
