Organ or coral??

[CRAP! Another Hobby]

Went into the LFS the other day (Oceans...Calgary) and saw a coral that looked like a pig's heart....(gross description...but accurate)...it was yellow with purple veins.

I can't remember what it was called...I think he said it was a "yellow squash".

Anyone know what it is??

Polycarpa aurata...aka "Gold Barrel Squirt"....Thanks PzReefer

Can anyone share any info/experience with these? I think they look damn neat! Just gotta talk Sue into having it in the tank

large tunicates like these are generally difficult to keep as they are strictly filter feeders. Comparable to gorgonians basically. imo, a no no in a nano.
