Description
This non photosynthetic species of gorgonian is more branching than the regular colored sea whip gorgonians. Its branches are usually flattened in a fan shape with knobby tissue and white polyps. It's found attached to hard bottom in depths of 25 - 50ft. Most collected specimens are dark purple but sometimes we find a red variant. They appreciate strong flow and need to be fed regularly with a quality coral formula, plankton or prepared food. Sizes vary between 6"-10" each mounted on a reef plug.
