those gorgs will b difficult...they are solely filter feeders and will need the right current to bring them food. as well as a near constant supply of it...good luck...

I don't know about those particular gorgs, but I have a blueberry gorg since february and it has not proven difficult. It likes an addition of docs eco eggs or oyster brew and phytoplankton. The rods food does a bit for it as well but not enough to make it thrive.

Look up photosynthetic gorgs vs non-photosynthetic. The first kind are much easier to keep than the later. Also depends on what else you want to keep in your tank. All gorgs like lots of food, which may become a problem with critters than don't do so well in high nutrient water.

They also require a good flow. Not only to keep the constant food requirement of the non-photosynthetic type but both are prone to algae growing along the flesh. The species also sheds slime off itself. It uses the slime coating to keep unwanted stuff off its branches. The slime is shed often. The flow is needed to keep algae off and slime coating shed when it's renewed.
