Overview
The Rainbow Yellow and Blue Goniopora Colony is a truly stunning specimen, showcasing a vibrant and captivating combination of bright yellow and deep blue polyps. This striking contrast adds a splash of colour to any reef tank and makes it a perfect focal point for aquascapes seeking a lively, dynamic look.

Goniopora are known for their unique look and stunning colours, but they do require specific care to thrive. This species is perfect for reefers who are ready to invest a little more time and attention into their corals for a truly eye-catching tank feature.
Care & Feeding
While Goniopora are photosynthetic, they will benefit greatly from supplemental feeding. Offering planktonic foods such as mysis shrimp or coral-specific blends will support optimal growth and vibrant colouration. Feed once or twice a week for the best results, especially if your tank has lower nutrient availability.
Optimal Parameters
Alkalinity (dKH): 8–11

Magnesium (Mg): 1300–1400 ppm
Nitrate (NO3): 2–10 ppm
Phosphate (PO4): 0.01–0.05 ppm
Placement
Place the Rainbow Yellow and Blue Goniopora Colony at the mid to bottom level of your tank, where it will have enough space to grow and thrive. It prefers moderate to chaotic flow, which encourages its polyps to extend fully. While it enjoys moderate to high lighting, be sure to position it where it won’t be subjected to intense direct light that could stress it out.
