Oh yeah, I forgot about that... some of these can shed their outer skin, and any algae or encrusting organisms with it, and will do so every so often. But I think I'll agree with Drock on this, I would shade it so it doesn't get overtaken (which I understand can happen quite easily with these).

I'm hoping you have some success with this, it is absolutely gorgeous... and perhaps I'll learn something for when I get a gorg, though it will likely be photosynthetic... but learning new things is good!
