Purple Candelabra Eco-Gorg™ (Plexaura flexuosa)

› Description

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 Candelabras can adapt to a wide variety of lighting and prefer decent water flow.  

This purple Plexaura flexuosa is a rare and collectible color morph of a striking photosynthetic gorgonian that grows upright branches in a parallel plane, much like a candelabra. The gorgonian tissue is an ultra purple color and the polyps are small and a contrasting light cream color.
