Gorgonian ID

[Shark888]

Hello all,

Is this a gorgonian ? if yes whats the offical name ?

As I understand it must be fed weekly, right ?

I agree it is a Sea Whip, although a 100% ID is nearly impossible. Assuming it is a Sea Whip it is photosynthetic and as such does not require spot feeding, but it like nearly all corals will benefit from a general broadcast feeding twice a week.

Gorgonians benefit from iodide at .03 - .06 ppm. Leathers and shrimps included as well.
Very nice specimen!
