Goniopora spp. (Green) Tank-Bred Frag is a captivating large polyp stony (LPS) coral known for its distinctive green polyps and elegant appearance. This cultured frag is grown under controlled conditions, ensuring a healthy and vibrant specimen for your marine reef aquarium.
Care Level: Moderate. Goniopora corals require stable water parameters and consistent care to thrive.
Lighting Requirements: Moderate lighting is ideal, such as LED or T5 fixtures providing approximately 100-150 PAR. Avoid intense direct light to prevent bleaching.
Water Flow: Moderate, indirect water flow is recommended to gently move polyps without causing tissue damage.
Placement: Position in the middle to lower regions of the tank where lighting and flow conditions are stable. Ensure adequate spacing from aggressive neighbours to prevent stinging or overgrowth.
Diet: While photosynthetic, Goniopora benefits from supplemental feeding of planktonic foods such as phytoplankton, rotifers, or specialised coral foods 1-2 times per week.
Compatibility: Reef safe with adequate spacing. Avoid placing near fast-growing or aggressive corals.
Additional Notes: Goniopora spp. are sensitive to rapid changes in water chemistry. Maintain stable parameters including calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium for optimal skeletal growth.
