Overview
The Goniopora Ultra Yellow Mini Colony is a stunning and vibrant specimen, prized for its ultra-bright yellow polyps that stand out beautifully under reef lighting. Native to Indonesia, this small but striking colony is perfect for aquarists seeking a compact yet eye-catching piece that doesnt overwhelm the tank but still demands attention. The yellow polyps are complemented by subtle green undertones, creating a soft but luminous glow, especially in tanks with good lighting.

While Goniopora can be a bit more demanding than other LPS, with proper care, they reward reef keepers with impressive growth and stunning polyp extension. This mini colony is ideal for those looking to add a burst of colour and movement to their aquascape without taking up too much space.

Care & Feeding
Goniopora are photosynthetic but will benefit from supplemental feeding. Offering small planktonic foods, such as phytoplankton or coral-specific blends, will help enhance the health, colour, and extension of the polyps. Feed 12 times a week, particularly if the coral is in a tank with lower nutrient availability.

Placement
Place the Ultra Yellow Goniopora Mini Colony in a mid to bottom level position in your tank with moderate to chaotic flow.

It also appreciates moderate to high lighting to bring out its true colours.

Radiant and Lively The Ultra Yellow Goniopora Mini Colony adds a dazzling splash of yellow to your reef tank. With its vibrant colour and movement, its perfect for reefers looking to make a statement.
