This photosynthetic gorgonian adds height, movement, and natural reef structure to established saltwater aquariums. \u003cem\u003ePlexaura flexuosa\u003c\/em\u003e is valued by reef hobbyists for its hardy photosynthetic care, bold dark coloration, and graceful branching form. Pacific East Aquaculture lists this Black Photosynthetic Gorgonian as \u003cem\u003ePlexaura flexuosa\u003c\/em\u003e. \u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare Guide:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003ePlexaura flexuosa\u003c\/em\u003e does best in moderate to higher lighting with moderate to strong, indirect water flow. Steady flow helps keep the branches clean, encourages polyp extension, and prevents detritus or nuisance algae from settling on the tissue. Place it where the branches receive consistent movement without being blasted directly. Maintain stable salinity, temperature, alkalinity, calcium, and magnesium, along with good overall water quality. This gorgonian is photosynthetic, but it may benefit from occasional broadcast feeding with fine coral foods, phytoplankton, or other small suspended foods in a mature reef aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pacific East Aquaculture","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43080583971049,"sku":"GS Eco Gorgo 3","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2133\/7655\/files\/Photosynthetic-Gorgonian-Black-GA1507.jpg?v=1776296895","url":"https:\/\/pacificeastaquaculture.com\/products\/black-photosynthetic-gorgonian-soft-coral-pea-f-au0331","provider":"Pacific East Aquaculture","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
