Goniopora spp. are captivating large polyp stony (LPS) corals prized for their distinctive flower-like polyps and vibrant colours. This premium cultured frag is grown under controlled conditions, ensuring healthy, acclimatised specimens suitable for marine reef aquaria.
Lighting: Moderate lighting is recommended to maintain optimal polyp extension and colour vibrancy. Avoid intense direct light which may cause stress.
Water Flow: Gentle to moderate water movement is ideal to facilitate nutrient exchange without damaging delicate polyps.
Placement: Position the frag in a stable location with adequate space from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression and ensure healthy growth. Mid to lower reef placement is often preferred.
Care Level: Intermediate to advanced. Goniopora spp. require stable water parameters and consistent feeding to thrive.
Feeding: Supplement with planktonic foods such as phytoplankton, zooplankton, or specialised coral feeds to support growth and polyp extension.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing to avoid contact with more aggressive corals.
