I found it at a store and really like it.
I want to reseach on it to see how it will do in my tank.
Can anyone give me an id or link to do some research please.
Blue Gorgonian wont cut it for research purposes.

Book: Soft Corals and Seafans, by K. Fabricius and P Alderslade.

contact: Michael Janes, Aquatouch (www.aquatouch.com)

act quickly, for this coral is probably already slowly starving to death.

Thank you both!

It is without question an azooxanthellate Pacific seafan, but beyond that I couldn't tell you which one.

Welcome back, Eric. I didn't know you were posting on RC again. That was one long absense for a while there.

Hey Marc:

yeah, it was a much needed break, but I'm back! :-)

Markieb,
Have you had any success with that gorgonian. I just picked up one just like it and would like some personal experience info if you dont mind.
