About this coral
About this coral
Red Variation Goniopora – Multiples Available is a flowerpot-style LPS coral (Goniopora sp.) from our coral selection. Goniopora are prized for their long, flower-like polyps, which can add movement, texture, and a striking display effect to a reef aquarium. In practical terms, this coral is commonly used as a “showpiece” LPS to create contrast against rockwork and other corals, and it’s best placed where lighting and gentle flow help the polyps extend consistently.
Features:
- Flowerpot-style LPS appearance with long, flower-like polyps for added texture and visual character
- Typically displays strong polyp extension when kept in stable reef conditions
- Best suited to moderate lighting; acclimate gradually when changing light intensity
- Prefers low to moderate, gently varied flow (avoid direct, blasting currents)
- A helpful choice for aquarists who can provide regular fine particulate coral feeding
- Give it space from neighboring corals and watch for sweepers if any aggression occurs
- Multiple frags are available, with individual shapes and polyp counts varying piece to piece as it’s a living coral
