Deep Sea Yellow Gorgonian Help.

I have been off and on considering buying one of these and I am looking for any info on them and proper care.
I have a 65g FOWLR with two strong powerheads so I have pretty good flow, but no special lighting just a Coraline with an actinic light, a regular aquarium light, and moon beams. Would this work?
Thx guys and gals

I have tried them 3 different times....they have all died. These are non-photosynthetic ones, so the lighting is not as important. They need to be fed though, and no matter what I fed mine...it did not work
I don;t think there is a high success rate....JMO

Yeah, thats seems to be the norm, a friend of mine had one and it died as well. Oh well I guess I'll pass on this one, unless someone has some magic technique that seems to work.
Thx meozer, and I'm glad to hear your Flame is doing better, hopefully he gets use to seeing you and wont hide
