The Purple Brush Gorgonian, also known as the Purple Sea Blade or Purple Bush Gorgonian, is a beautiful and unique species of gorgonian coral. This species is characterized by its thin, bushy branches that are a vibrant shade of purple. The branches are covered in tiny, white polyps that create a beautiful contrast against the purple coloration. The Purple Brush Gorgonian is a peaceful and easy-to-care-for species that makes a great addition to a reef aquarium. It requires moderate to high lighting and moderate water flow to thrive. The Purple Brush Gorgonian is a filter feeder that obtains its food by collecting small particles from the water column. In addition to planktonic foods, it may also benefit from the addition of supplements designed for filter-feeding invertebrates. As with all gorgonian corals, it is important to provide the Purple Brush Gorgonian with stable water parameters and avoid exposing it to sudden changes in temperature, salinity, or pH. Gorgonian corals can be sensitive to certain medications and additives, so it is important to research any products before adding them to the aquarium. With proper care, the Purple Brush Gorgonian can add a beautiful and unique element to any reef aquarium.
