This is a WYSIWYG coral, meaning the coral shown in the photo is the exact piece you will receive.

Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Moderate lighting
• Flow: Moderate, varied flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Semi-aggressive
• Care Level: Moderate to Advanced

Lighting

Provide moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually to its final intensity and observe extension and coloration as it settles into the reef.

Flow

Use moderate, varied flow that keeps the polyps moving gently. Avoid direct blasting flow, which can prevent comfortable extension.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with open room for polyp extension. Give the coral time to adjust before making major placement changes.

Temperament

Allow generous spacing from neighboring corals. This semi-aggressive Goniopora needs room for extended polyps and should not be positioned where nearby corals can crowd or sting it.

Feeding

Offer occasional fine particulate foods to support this coral. Target feeding can be useful when done gently without overwhelming the specimen.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and avoid stripping the aquarium of all measurable nutrients. Moderate to advanced care is appropriate; monitor polyp extension, placement response, and interactions with nearby corals as the reef changes.

Give it stable conditions, gentle movement, and space to extend.
