The Blue Goniopora spp. is a captivating large polyp stony (LPS) coral prized for its striking blue polyps and unique appearance. This premium extra extra large specimen offers an impressive display piece for advanced marine aquarium hobbyists.
Lighting Requirements: Moderate lighting is recommended to maintain optimal health and vibrant coloration. Avoid intense direct light which may cause stress.
Water Flow: Provide moderate, indirect water flow to ensure adequate gas exchange and prevent detritus accumulation without damaging the delicate polyps.
Placement: Position the coral on a stable substrate or rockwork in a location with moderate light and flow. Ensure sufficient spacing from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression and allow full polyp extension.
Care Level: Due to its size and sensitivity, this coral is best suited for experienced aquarists familiar with LPS coral husbandry.
Diet: While photosynthetic, Blue Goniopora spp. benefit from supplemental feeding of planktonic foods such as phytoplankton, zooplankton, or specialised coral foods to support growth and polyp extension.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing to prevent stinging or overgrowth of neighbouring corals.
Additional Notes: Regular water quality monitoring and stable parameters are essential for long-term success. Avoid sudden changes in lighting or flow to reduce stress.
