gorg, easy or hard to keep?

[legion]

What do you guys think, have wanted one for some time

 

[legion]

I take it that the ones they sell on this site are the hard kind, they are yellow and it says to feed plankton

 

[skirrby]

mine has been very easy for me.. its in a high light, high flow area and seems to be thriving. this one does do photosynthisis.

The ones that need to be fed are the ones that have white polyps.
Here are my 3 types.

:happyfish I have a purple ribbon gorgonian that does not require high light or high feedings. I'd post a pix, but camera down. Their pretty cheap too. The one in the above pix is a florida pom pom, needing high light. I have lower light powercompacts and do well with mine. There are lots of other kinds that don't need high lights. I love gorgonians, I'm starting to have a gorgonian tank now. I have a low light white gorgonian too. Good luck, they are WAY cool.
