The Goniopora spp. (Tequila Sunrise) Grade B frag is a stunning addition to any marine reef aquarium, prized for its striking polyp colours and unique appearance. This coral belongs to the large polyp stony (LPS) family and is cultivated with care to ensure healthy growth and vibrant hues.
Lighting Requirements: Moderate to high lighting is recommended to maintain optimal colour and growth. LED or T5 lighting systems that provide a balanced spectrum work well.
Water Flow: Moderate, indirect water flow is ideal. Too strong a current can cause polyp retraction, while too little flow may lead to detritus accumulation.
Placement: Position this frag in a stable location with adequate space from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression. Placement mid to lower levels of the tank is generally preferred.
Care Level: Moderate. This coral requires stable water parameters and regular monitoring to thrive.
Compatibility: Reef safe with adequate spacing from other corals to avoid stinging or competition. Suitable for mixed reef tanks with peaceful tank mates.
Feeding: While photosynthetic, Goniopora spp. benefit from supplemental feeding of fine particulate foods such as phytoplankton or specialised coral foods to encourage polyp extension and growth.
As a Grade B frag, this specimen may show slight variations in polyp size or colour intensity compared to higher grades but remains a beautiful and rewarding coral for enthusiasts.
