Really? that's cool! How long have you got it and what are you feeding it and how often? rotifers?

Success with this coral need a dedicated NPS tank, no less.

So far you would be the first that I know who not only had success maintaining it alive but actually making it grow! wow...

do you have pics that tank?

I was thinking eventually to put up a small NPS tank but darn it's expensive.

Also do you use a chiller? since most of those NP grow in deeper water...??

Another very important factor that I was told by a marine biologist is that the way the gorgone is transported and kept until it reach a proper tank is very determinant to its survival long term and a blueberry that would have been at high temp during shipping would have poor chance of survival.

daniella does have merit to her post these corals need live food in the microns and feed several times a day ( all day is better )


succeess with this coral is not as rare as alot of people think.
