Eco-Gorgs™ | Pseudopterogorgia bipinnata

› Description

The Purple Plume Eco-Gorg™ is a beautifully colorful morph of a gorgonian that looks great in an aquarium with a wavemaker. This purple Pseudopterogorgia is a rare and collectible color morph of a striking photosynthetic gorgonian that grows feather-like secondary branches off of a main axis. In the wild colonies can be over one meter in height, but in the aquarium they can be trimmed to whatever size is most appropriate. The gorgonian tissue is an ultra purple color and the polyps are very small and tan in color. This gorgonian is not particularly demanding and relatively non-agressive.  However, it shouldn't be allowed to come into contact with other gorgonians, corals, or anemones to minimize inter-species aggression.  Purple Plumes prefer medium to high lighting and prefer decent water flow.
