Pink Goniopora spp. Coral Frag is a captivating addition to any marine reef aquarium, prized for its delicate pink polyps and distinctive appearance. This cultured frag is grown under controlled conditions, ensuring a healthy and sustainable specimen.
Care Level: Moderate. Goniopora corals require stable water parameters and attentive husbandry.
Lighting Requirements: Moderate lighting is recommended, such as T5 or LED setups providing around 100-150 PAR. Avoid intense direct light to prevent bleaching.
Water Flow: Gentle to moderate water movement is ideal to encourage polyp extension without causing tissue damage.
Placement: Position the frag on a stable rock or frag plug in a shaded or semi-shaded area of the tank. Ensure adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression.
Diet: While Goniopora spp. derive nutrition from photosynthesis via symbiotic zooxanthellae, supplemental feeding with fine particulate foods such as phytoplankton, rotifers, or specialised coral foods 2-3 times weekly can promote growth and vibrancy.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing. This coral is generally peaceful but requires room to extend its polyps without contact with other corals.
Origin: Not Provided. As a cultured frag, it is sustainably sourced from aquaculture facilities.
Maximum Size: Not Provided. Growth rates vary depending on tank conditions.
Minimum Tank Size: 75 litres (20 gallons) recommended to maintain stable water parameters.
Regular monitoring of water quality, including calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium, is essential to support skeletal growth. Maintain stable temperature (24-26°C), salinity (1.023-1.025 SG), and low nutrient levels for optimal health.
