Goniopora
I have seen many people struggle with keeping flower pot corals. Here are some tips for keeping them alive:
While there are 7 species of goniopora for sale, some are harder to keep than others. Goniopora with a branching growth prove to do better than those with a rounder shape. Often times, people will put a power head right up to the coral. DONT do this, as it likes softer current, just enough to sway back and forth.
Flower pots actually dont need 猬xtremely stong amounts of lighting (Altought it is perfered). PC's will even sometimes work for these guys, if you have strong amounts of it (6wts+ per gallon of PC's or stronger(DONT USE NO OUTPUT LIGHTS!!!)), and 犲f the water is outstandin with the parimeters.
If you have one, and are adding any sort of plankton, let me tell you something about that: The Goniopora is not consuming the plankton you add, but the other forms of life are (Tube worms, sponges, rock biring clams, etc) which produce larve that the coral eats.
Make sure that you do tons of reading, make sure your tank is mature, and have very stonge amounts of lighting before you add one of these.
