Thanks for that info Myka.
Mine is not as large as Michael from England nor does it get as tall. Here is a quick photo taken by a hand held camera and under moon lights just to show the "magma effect". I figure June to be it's first year aniversary. |

Myka, I googled "Goniopora Stutchburyi" and I don't think its a match with what I got.
Here is a photo I just took with a tripod and the actinics and metal halides are on and no water movement: I haven't highjacked your thread have I? |

No, you haven't hijacked it at all. This is a thread to discuss Goniopora! Is that as long as the tentacles on yours get?
Take a look here, and see if you can identify it if you want: http://www.advancedaquarist.com/2005/10/aafeature2 |

Myka,
Looking at that link there are two that have half the qualities each to make a match, G. Palmensis and the G. Somalienis (SOMe ALIENis). Here again are another batch of just taken photos. This one is a close (r) up shot under actinic & MH + Moon Under actinics & moon Just under Moon Another under just moon Under actinics and water blown by turkey baster (gently) Under actinic & MH. The ribbed pink trails are what glows like magna/lava Starting to peak out Same If we can't figure out which it is then I'd like to call it "SOM ALIEN ". |

Here's my red flowerpot. I've had it 1 year and 3 months. So far it has been one of the easier corals in my tank that has survived some serious issues in my tank where I lost a significant number of other corals.

I have one of the large green goniaporas, so far about a year and a half. I spot feed it dried cyclopeeze mixed with water maybe once every two weeks with a test kit syringe. It hasnt grown much bigger since I aquaired it but it has spawned off a few babies. I dont think this is a hard coral to keep one just has to have a little responsibility with the feeding is all. There used to be a dedicated site for gonias but it has since gone away.
