These rare corals have a highly branching form and are non photosynthetic. They should be kept in dimply lit spots or in caves in the aquarium and provided with medium to strong water flow and offered supplemental feeding. They have (very) tiny clear polyps that may be visible at night. They are typically purple, occasionally orange in color. PLEASE NOTE, THESE MAY BE EITHER PURPLE OR ORANGE, THEY ARE NOT SOLD AS ONE SPECIFIC COLOR. They are rarely collected and sell quickly. Be sure to grab them fast when available!
