Indo Gorgonian ID

[jestep]

A local vendor has some pretty amazing indo gorgs. Wanted to see if anyone could ID this. Amazing piece but if it needs an NPS tank, definitely not going to work.

I have no idea but I am commenting here so I can find this again when someone hopefully answers. Looks awesome.

Looks like NPS to me based on color alone. It also looks to be starving.

almost all pacific/indo gorgs available in the trade are NPS.

 

If youre looking for good photosynthetic gorgs try carribean/floridean vendors.

 

or pm me

Good to know. They had some other yellow finger gorgs but wasn't sure on this one. I've got a few photosynthetic ones already, just never see anything with colors like this one.

 

I know there's some NPS tank owners here, so hopefully someone that can properly care for it can get a hold of it.

NPS can have some of the most amazing gorgeous colors that puts SPS to shame.

agreed.

 

NPS can be shockingly colorful.

 

back when i was messing constant dosing via iv pump i had a silver gorg with blue polyps that was stunning.....

I'd like to see what colors of polyps it has.

Wow, that coral is breathtaking

+1

 

The polyps are shrunken and mostly closed. If I'd have to put money on it, I'd also wager that they are being kept somewhere that's too bright, and too warm
