Gorgonia sp. (likely Gorgonia mariae) This variety of Gorgonian, the Net Sea Fan, was cultured in Panama at Bocas Mariculture. It has thin, purple, elegant branches with small polyps that fuse together as they grow to form an intricate net pattern. This type of sea fan, including Gorgonia ventalina and G. flabellum, has been sought after but difficult for hobbyists to obtain in years past, but is now available through Biota as an aquacultured alternative to wild collection.
Many other species of gorgonians and sea fans are difficult to keep in captivity, however, this species is relatively easy to keep and a great coral for beginners who want something with interesting form and flow. It is photosynthetic, but will benefit from feedings of microfoods designed for soft corals.
