Description
Goniopora is an unusual LPS with elongated polyps that extend far from the skeleton, and wave back and forth in the current. This hard coral has all the motion of soft corals, and comes in a wide range of colors. These corals grow best with moderate to high flow and light, and feed them regularly (either broadcast or directly). (The best advice I’ve ever gotten for growing Goniopora is to treat them like Acros that need to be fed).
This variety is something special. A true Bright Red Goniopora with subtle blue tips on the tentacles and orange around the mouth. Best of all its a hardy and fast growing Goni, almost comparable to Justins Ultra Green in terms of hardiness and growth rates.
These are large, multi-polyp frags similar to the image shown here. However, because of natural variation among frags yours may not look identical to this image.
Like all hard corals, this requires overnight shipping.

Opening up nicely during drip acclimation! 20 minutes into the DT she’s a happy girl.

Beautiful healthy coral.

Not nearly this vibrant, however, fully extended within moments of the acclimation completion & grabbed a direct feed within an hour.
