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 and acclimate gradually when moving it into brighter conditions. Observe polyp extension and adjust placement slowly rather than making abrupt lighting changes.

Flow

Use moderate, varied flow that keeps the polyps moving gently. Avoid direct blasting flow, which can limit extension and irritate the coral.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with open room for full polyp extension. Give the specimen time to acclimate before changing its position.

Temperament

Allow spacing from nearby corals because Goniopora is semi-aggressive. Leave room around its extended polyps and avoid placing it where neighboring corals can make contact.

Feeding

Offer occasional fine particulate foods to support this coral. Feeding is beneficial, especially when paired with stable reef conditions and available nutrients.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and avoid stripping the aquarium of all measurable nutrients. This moderate-to-advanced coral responds best to patient acclimation, consistent observation, and gradual adjustments to light or flow when polyp extension changes.

Provide consistency, gentle movement, and space for reliable polyp extension.
