Blue gorgonian.
 
Here is a pic of a blue sea fan that a Vancouver wholesaler sent me. Really awesome blue.
I'm told it's an acalycigorgia sp. gorgonian, photosynthetic. Makes me wish I had room in my tank!! :biggrin:

Shao, I've got a bunch of pics of that tank. It's a German tank I believe. I'll have to post them tonight when I get home.

I have to agree, I would make room for that one.
:biggrin:

Hi Brad. I don't think its photosynthetic though. Some info I found:

Here's mine. I just got it so polyps haven't fully extended yet. I think these guys might be difficult to keep. I haven't found a lot of info out there yet.

wow.

I had a frag of one :biggrin: but I lost it fairly quickly :frown: . I was told that they are not photosynthetic. I was feeding the tank DT's and some German brand of Invert food along wit my regular feedings.

The parent colony was I beleive around $180.00 and a mounted frag of it was $30.00. I took the gamble and lost. It was pretty awsome while it lasted thought.
