    I can confirm having the same experience with "'Goonys".
    Low flow, low light, high on food.
    Keep on going, love your stuff

    The goniopora i got from tidal gardens 3 years back is the most hardy coral in my tank.. it thrived in different locations within the tank, a tank upgrade and a tank move when we relocated.. it trippled in size and became a giant in the tank.. its one of our favorite coral in our tank along with torch ..

    The initial commentary is exactly what happened to my first goni. It went from a conversation piece to non-reactive in 5 mos.

    Really informative video. I have a small Goni frag that has been in my aquarium just short of 6 months. I do supply aminos and a powder feed. Lovely corals. I was wary about buying the coral initially knowing the history of the coral.

  • @marcoj90

    Very helpful Video. It looks like it saved my Goni.
    After feeding directly, the polyps came out about 1mm (the first time for about a Month).
    After feeding 2h later again, they are about 5-7mm out, got a bit more colorful/fleshy (on the skeleton).
    It looks like thats the solution for me. Seems that the coral needs many food and direkt feeding.
    Thanks for sharing the knowledge. 👍

    I picked up a goniopora at the store and it was doing well for a couple weeks and closed up and I waited 3 days and it still wasn't opening. I normally feed my corals every other day sometimes every day. So this goni isn't opening, and I decide to just squirt the amino soaked reef roids all over the coral and I have been doing that every day for 4 days and it is starting to open and extend tentacles again even though I can't tell it's eating anything at all. So great advice

    I bought two Gonioporas 2.5 years ago. One disappointingly died after a year but the other is thriving spectacularly even though I have not looked after my tank very well for about a 4 month period.
    I have fed it reef-roids only once or twice.

    I have a red and green goni, about the same size as this big red one in this video. They are 8 years old and continue to grow :) I feed them about 5 times a year! They are my prize corals and house my clowns. I put down their success to hosting clowns and that I’ve always run NSW, I keep my tank at NSW parameters. They must be getting manganese through water changes. I did however run Julian sprungs sand for a year that has manganese in it, but ... my SPS didn’t agree so much, not sure how true it is or the link. They grow best under plasma light for some reason. Hands down one of the most beautiful LPS in my opinion. Tip! Let them have their space in the tank, no touching anything, they even hate rocks and too much flow. But strangely they put up with the clowns. I think they hate jaggy things as they are delicate.

    Hi Than, a question if I may? It mentions on this video and your Goni info page that lower lighting should be favoured until you see the coral demand more, what should I look for? I lowered my AI Primes to 40% blues and some white, they responded well to this after not opening at around 80%, but I wouldn’t say fully extended maybe 3/4, are they wanting more light do you thing, seem to be feeding well and parameters stable at 9dkh, 420 calcium, 0.04 phosphate, nitrate 5-10

    • @tidalgardens

      I use a mix of powdered foods so I can't speak to that product alone, but I've seen some other people's videos where they fed it exclusively and liked the results.

      Reef Roids was formulated with Goniopora in mind. I find them sorta tricky to feed.

    Here’s the correct role of Magnesium in a reef tank. Magnesium makes calcium carbonate less attractive to calcium and carbonate ions; thus keeping the right level of calcium and alkalinity as well as limiting deposits of calcium carbonate in equipments.
