Goniopora spp. (Yellow) Tank-Bred Frag is a captivating large polyp stony (LPS) coral prized for its vibrant yellow polyps that resemble delicate flowers swaying in the current. This cultured frag is grown under controlled conditions, ensuring healthy growth and acclimatisation to aquarium life.
Lighting Requirements: Moderate lighting is recommended, such as LED or T5 fixtures providing a PAR range of 50-150. Avoid intense direct light to prevent bleaching.
Water Flow: Provide gentle to moderate water movement to facilitate nutrient exchange and prevent detritus settling on the coral’s surface.
Placement: Position the frag on a stable rock or frag plug in the middle to lower regions of the tank where lighting and flow conditions are optimal. Ensure adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression and tissue damage.
Care Level: Moderate. Goniopora spp. require stable water parameters and regular feeding of planktonic or coral-specific foods to thrive.
Diet: While photosynthetic, this coral benefits from supplemental feeding of phytoplankton, zooplankton, or specialised coral foods 2-3 times weekly.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing. This coral can coexist peacefully with other reef inhabitants but requires room to expand its polyps.
Minimum Tank Size: Not Provided. However, a mature reef tank with stable water quality is essential for success.
Origin: Not Provided. This frag is tank-bred, ensuring sustainable sourcing and acclimatisation.
Maximum Size: Not Provided. Growth rates vary depending on tank conditions.
