This soft coral adds height, movement, and natural sea fan-style structure to established reef aquariums. \u003cem\u003ePterogorgia anceps\u003c\/em\u003e is appreciated by reef hobbyists for its graceful upright growth, attractive purple branches, and more manageable care compared with non-photosynthetic gorgonians.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare Guide:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003ePterogorgia anceps\u003c\/em\u003e does best in moderate to higher lighting with moderate to strong, indirect water flow. Steady flow is important to keep the ribbon-like branches clean, encourage polyp extension, and prevent detritus or nuisance algae from settling on the tissue. Place it where the branches can sway gently without being blasted directly. Maintain stable reef parameters, including salinity, temperature, alkalinity, calcium, and magnesium. 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":12474661666901,"sku":"GS Eco Gorgo 2","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2133\/7655\/files\/Photosynthetic-Gorgonian-Purple-Ribbon-GA1505.jpg?v=1776296882","url":"https:\/\/pacificeastaquaculture.com\/products\/purple-ribbon-photosynthetic-gorgonian-soft-coral-pea-f-au0330","provider":"Pacific East Aquaculture","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
