Hmm. This makes me want to try these again. I know my wife will like them since they move! Need to add/rearrange rock to make more tables to corals!!

Since the writing of that article he has released a food through Two Little Fishies called Goniopower. It works well.

Oh I didn't even look at the author! Boston Reefers Society had him as a guest speaker! Nice guy for sure.

Thank you for this awesome article!

Would love to try another one.
The one-year threshold has been depressing.

I have found the ORA Red Goniopora to be quite hardy and undemanding. The skeleton on mine went from the size of a jellybean to bigger than a golf ball in under a year. The polyps are at least six inches long, it's a stunning coral. I was seeing an increase in algae when I was feeding it more so I cut back significantly and it hasn't stopped growing. It seems to rely more on light. ORA grows them with sunlight in greenhouses with little feeding.
