This WYSIWYG Goniopora is suited to reef keepers prepared to provide moderate lighting, varied water movement, and consistent reef conditions. Its extended polyps need open space to move naturally without being crowded by nearby corals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.riptideaquaculture.com\/collections\/wysiwyg-coral\" title=\"Shop WYSIWYG coral at Riptide Aquaculture\"\u003eWYSIWYG coral\u003c\/a\u003e, meaning the coral shown in the photo is the exact piece you will receive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQuick Care Summary\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLighting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate lighting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlow:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate, varied flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlacement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lower to middle reef areas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e Semi-aggressive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate to Advanced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLighting\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProvide moderate lighting and acclimate gradually to its final intensity.

Its extended polyps can reach beyond the base, so keep nearby placements clear and monitor interactions as it settles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeeding\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOffer occasional fine particulate foods to support this coral’s needs.

This Moderate to Advanced care coral benefits from regular observation; changes in polyp extension can help identify lighting, flow, or water-quality issues early.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllow time for acclimation and adjust placement only after observing its response.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WYSIWYG Coral","offers":[{"title":"Frag","offer_id":48514543059166,"sku":"K06-S1-7-28-07","price":47.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0607\/1002\/7486\/files\/iron-man-goniopora-coral-k06-s1-7-28-07-1308323.jpg?v=1785297971","url":"https:\/\/www.riptideaquaculture.com\/products\/k06-s1-7-28-07","provider":"Riptide Aquaculture LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
