Goniopora, or "Goni," is an LPS coral from the Indo-Pacific with long, flower-like polyps that sway in the current. Today's aquacultured Goniopora are much hardier than the ones reefers struggled with years ago.
Care: Best in a mature, stable tank. Moderate light and flow, with regular feedings of fine coral foods.

Notes from the King:
"Gonis used to have a bad reputation, but the aquacultured ones we see now do great in a mature, stable tank. I keep them mid-tank with medium flow so the polyps really sway, and feed a little phyto or fine coral food a few times a week."
