Goniopora spp. (Pink) is a captivating large polyp stony (LPS) coral known for its distinctive pink polyps and gentle swaying tentacles. This tiny tank-bred specimen is suitable for marine aquarists with some experience in coral husbandry.
Lighting: Moderate lighting is ideal, such as LED or T5 fixtures providing a PAR range of approximately 50-150. Avoid intense direct light to prevent bleaching.
Water Flow: Provide gentle to moderate water movement to ensure adequate gas exchange and to prevent detritus accumulation on the polyps. Too strong a flow may cause polyp retraction.
Placement: Position the coral in a shaded or semi-shaded area of the reef tank, preferably on a stable rock or frag plug. Ensure adequate spacing from aggressive neighbours to avoid stinging or overgrowth.
Care: Goniopora spp. can be sensitive to water quality fluctuations. Maintain stable parameters with regular water changes and monitor calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium levels closely. Feeding with planktonic foods or specialised coral feeds 1-2 times weekly can promote health and growth.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing from other corals to prevent aggression.
This tiny tank-bred pink Goniopora is a beautiful addition to a mature reef setup, offering both visual appeal and moderate challenge for dedicated hobbyists.
