finding a frag may be hard as theres maybe 2 or 3 people in the whole country possibly continent who can keep them alive for more than a couple of months , i kept one alive for quite a while but when i gave it to someone else it died within a couple of weeks regardless of how i said powdered foods wont keep this alive by hand feedings.
needs food 24hrs a day or live food several times a day.
by far one of the hardest to keep gorgs thats in circulation.
good luck though shes a beaut if you can keep it:)
I've read up a bit on it and knew it would be hard but you make it seem a lot harder haha
I may not have time to do that.. Damn.
I have a tan colored gorg sea fan but want something a little brighter. Can you recommenced an easier one with nice colors?

absolutely buddy , if your looking for an easy to care for nps gorgonian while not having to feed all day try the menella sp. its a bright red gorg with incredibly bright yellow polyps. when its out you cant see the red stalk just the yellow polyps, and when i say bright i mean nps bright so way brighter than anything else you see yellow in aquaria.
this gorg can get by just on the left overs from feeding pellets , ive given this gorg to people with sps tanks and they have kept it alive .
obviously if you target/broadcast feed youll get faster growth
its a nps piece but the easiest to care for and a good starter for bright gorgonians
you could always go photosynthetic but then the colors are a bit drab (purple,tan,brown, etc)

I think Denny is sending us on a wild goose chase. A quick google search shows nothing in North America and only a few older shots from the UK.
Maybe if Denny could source a few for us....
Agreed! We need to have a source
