Hi all - how often does a gorgonian shed and what does it look like when it sheds - just closed polyps or is there literally stuff coming off it?. Thank you!

What kind of gorgonian do you have? Any pictures?


By the way this is a normal occurance they are shedding algal growth bacteria detritus etc. Could happen every couple of months or so. Just make sure you have good flow over them so the shedded part gets off of them. Otherwise it could irritate them.

It just has closed polyps before it starts to shed. IME this only lasts a day or two before it opens again and begins shedding.
