🧬 Overview
The Goniopora “Neon Glitter Bomb” XL Colony is a collector-grade showpiece, known for its hypnotic motion and bi-colour fluorescent intensity. Its long, flowing polyps sway gracefully with the current, creating a living field of light that shifts from emerald green to deep violet hues.
Each WYSIWYG colony is hand-selected for:
-
Full, even polyp coverage and symmetrical growth
-
Exceptional fluorescence and clean contrast
-
Healthy tissue base and strong feeding response
-
Stable adaptation to aquarium conditions
A coral that brings both movement and radiance, ideal for aquarists wanting a visually dominant yet peaceful centrepiece.
🍽️ Care & Feeding
While Goniopora derive most energy from light, target feeding enhances growth and colour intensity.
Feed 1–2× weekly with:
-
Reef roids or coral microblends
-
Phytoplankton and fine particulate foods
Ensure flow is off during feeding to allow maximum capture efficiency.
📈 Optimal Parameters
| Parameter | Ideal Range |
|---|---|
| Alkalinity (dKH) | 7.5–9 |
| Calcium (Ca) | 420–450 ppm |
| Magnesium (Mg) | 1300–1400 ppm |
| Nitrate (NO₃) | 5–15 ppm |
| Phosphate (PO₄) | 0.03–0.10 ppm |
📍 Placement
Position where polyps can fully extend without touching other corals.
Provide gentle, pulsing flow to maintain movement and prevent detritus build-up.
Avoid high light zones — overexposure can cause retraction or bleaching.
A balanced mid-tank location yields best colour and expansion.
