Goniopora Coral, often called Flowerpot Coral, is a stunning LPS coral known for its long, flowing polyps and flower-like appearance that adds movement and color to any reef tank. It comes in a wide range of vibrant colors — green, pink, red, and rainbow — that glow beautifully under blue lighting. Goniopora thrives in moderate lighting and moderate, indirect flow, which keeps its polyps gently waving without causing damage. It can be sensitive to water quality and benefits from a stable, nutrient-rich environment with regular feeding of fine particulate foods like phytoplankton, reef roids, or coral blends. Placement should allow space for full polyp extension and minimal contact with other corals. With proper care and consistency, Goniopora can grow well and become a mesmerizing centerpiece in both mixed and LPS-dominant reef aquariums.
