🔹 Quick Stats Care Level: Moderate Temperament: Semi-Aggressive Colour Form: Beautiful yellow and pink coloration, combining bright golden-yellow fluorescence with contrasting soft to intense pink tones across the flower-like polyps. Under actinic lighting, the yellow becomes particularly vivid while the pink provides a warmer contrasting glow. Size: Colony Water Conditions: 24–26 °C, dKH 7.5–8.5, pH 8.0–8.4, sg 1.024–1.026 Family: Poritidae Lighting: Low to Moderate (PAR 80–150) Water Flow: Low to Moderate, indirect and variable Placement: Low to Mid Reef Type: WYSIWYG – Exact Colony Shown
🧬 Overview This Yellow & Pink Goniopora is a striking established colony selected for its beautiful combination of bright yellow and contrasting pink tones.
Once fully extended, its numerous flower-like polyps create constant movement in the aquarium, producing an almost waving field of yellow and pink. Similar multicolour Goniopora can show yellow, gold and pink pigmentation across individual polyps, making these combinations particularly attractive under blue-spectrum reef lighting.
Unlike a small starter frag, this is an established colony, providing immediate size, movement and colour in the aquarium.
🧾 WYSIWYG – Individual Colony You will receive the exact Yellow & Pink Goniopora colony shown in the photographs.
Selected for: • Bright yellow coloration • Beautiful contrasting pink tones • Strong fluorescence under blues • Excellent polyp extension • Established colony size • Dense flower-like appearance • Incredible movement in moderate flow • Exact WYSIWYG specimen
🍽️ Care & Feeding Goniopora are photosynthetic but benefit considerably from regular supplemental feeding with fine particulate and planktonic foods. Rotifers, copepod-sized foods and fine coral powders can all be offered when the polyps are fully extended.
Provide gentle, variable water movement that allows the polyps to sway naturally rather than being blasted in one direction. Stable nutrients and water chemistry are particularly important for maintaining long-term polyp extension and coloration.

📍 Placement Place in the lower to middle areas of the reef, ideally where the colony receives moderate lighting and soft, multidirectional flow. Allow generous space around it so the long polyps can fully extend without touching neighbouring corals.
