This photosynthetic gorgonian adds natural movement, height, and reef structure to established saltwater aquariums. With its warm tan to purple-brown branches and star-like polyps, \u003cem\u003eBriareum asbestinum\u003c\/em\u003e is a great choice for hobbyists looking for a durable, attractive gorgonian that is easier to maintain than non-photosynthetic species.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare Guide:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eBriareum asbestinum\u003c\/em\u003e does best in moderate to higher lighting with moderate to strong, indirect water flow. Consistent water movement helps keep the branches clean, encourages full polyp extension, and prevents detritus or nuisance algae from settling on the tissue. Place it where the colony can receive steady flow without being blasted directly. Maintain stable reef parameters, good water quality, and avoid allowing algae to overgrow the branches. This gorgonian is photosynthetic and does not require heavy feeding, though it may benefit from occasional broadcast feeding with fine coral foods or small suspended foods in a mature reef aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pacific East Aquaculture, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":12602409320533,"sku":"GS Eco Gorgo 12","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2133\/7655\/files\/Photosynthetic-Gorgonian-Corky-Finger-GA1504.jpg?v=1776296887","url":"https:\/\/pacificeastaquaculture.com\/products\/corky-finger-photosynthetic-gorgonian-soft-coral-pea-f-au0325","provider":"Pacific East Aquaculture","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
