I have only the blue small-polyped gorgonian (on the photos), Menella or Guaiagorgia - can't be sure. Lesser density of polyps, and thinner at all, comparing to Menella photos above.
I picked mine in LFS during the summer, and the yellow miniature Menellas were also for sale during this time.
LFS have frequently rich choice of gorgonians - photosynthetic, Diodogorgias and Menellas, and, occasionally - blueberry and Elisella.
But, except different Tubastreas, palm-shaped chilis, orange scleros and sometimes so-so dendros - not much a choice of non-photosynthetic corals.
OOT:
Does anybody keeping Tube Anemone (Cerianthus) in the same tank? It prefers the same lower temperature and is described as filter feeder. Just curious.
