The Purple Ribbon Gorgonian, also known as Purple Bush Gorgonian, is a stunning branching soft coral that adds a unique vertical dimension to any reef aquarium. Its delicate and intricate structure features multiple thin branches that form a bush-like shape, with small polyps covering the surface of each branch. The rich purple coloration of the Purple Ribbon Gorgonian is simply breathtaking, adding a bold splash of color to any aquascape. Like all Gorgonian corals, the Purple Ribbon Gorgonian is a filter feeder that requires moderate to strong water flow to capture and consume planktonic food particles. It prefers bright lighting and stable water parameters, with alkalinity and calcium levels being particularly important for healthy growth. The Purple Ribbon Gorgonian can be a bit sensitive to changes in water quality, so it is important to maintain excellent water quality and perform regular water changes to keep it thriving. In terms of placement, the Purple Ribbon Gorgonian should be secured to a stable base such as live rock or an artificial frag plug. It should be given plenty of space to extend its branches, as it can grow quite large over time. While it is generally considered a peaceful coral, it may compete with other filter-feeding organisms for food, so it is best to keep it separated from other similar species in the aquarium.
