Default Purple gorgonian with purple polyps
One of my newest corals: Purple sea rod (gorgonian) with purple polyps.

Wasn't planning to buy anything at King Ed's but this one was just toooooo beautiful. I even drove back home to research it & then drove right back to pick it up.

Close up.



Side view.



Front view.



I'm weak. It was just too beautiful to not buy it

Hope you like

Anthony

I like What a show-stopper!!

I wish you the best of luck with it!!

Let me know if you try feeding it .. Reefroids or cyclops or baby brine shrimp etc. I find with mine if I feed it I should turn off my current for a few minutes, it gets more, but I'm not sure if that's needed.

Thumbs up
You guys should see this sucker in person. The colour is unreal and photos just don't do it justice.

Hopefully it'll cooperate with Anthony and do well.

Haha. If it does well, I may have some frags way in the future available. I'll put you (Marie) & Chin on the list. Oh, & you too Tony

Tony, I plan to feed it mainly reefroids & I'll also try cyclopeeze.

Hi Anthony

Well you will have to put me on that list. That is truly a show stopper.

Do they have any more?
