1fish2fish Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 I received the following critters in on Thursday: ricordia, zoanthids, and gorgonian. The ricordia and zoanthids are doing great. They have opened up and look pretty good so far. Unfortunately the gorgonian was a tad dissapointing. I had ordered an encrusting gorgonian, but received what appears to be a purple ribbon gorgonian. It seems to be producing a slime membrane on parts of it (may be dieback?). I siphoned this off (gently) usning rigid airline. The polyps have not yet opened. There is no registerable ammonia. Should I be concerned yet, or give it a few more days. This gorgonian is also a little larger than I had expected. Can it be fragged? If so, what is the best way to do this. I'll try to post pics soon. Link to comment
birdman204 Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 The blue ribbon is a photosynthetic gorgonian. it may need acclimation to your current lighting. Link to comment
