{"product_id":"mint-green-goniopora-colony","title":"Mint Green Goniopora Colony","description":"\u003cp\u003eGoniopora, often called flowerpot coral, is known for its long, flowing polyps that bring a unique sense of motion to a reef aquarium. This particular colony displays a soft, consistent mint green colouration across its polyps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a home reef, Goniopora extends its polyps from a stony base, creating a mesmerising, meadow-like effect. The polyps sway with the water movement, and on this specimen are a uniform, pleasant green. A healthy colony will show full polyp extension during the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuccessful long-term care for Goniopora hinges on stable water parameters and dedicated feeding. They prefer moderate lighting, in the 100-200 PAR range, and low to moderate indirect flow that allows the polyps to extend without being blasted. Placement is best on the sandbed or a low-lying rock. Regular feeding with quality powdered coral foods or phytoplankton is essential for their health. Like many LPS, they require stable alkalinity (8-9 dKH), calcium (420-440 ppm), and magnesium (1300-1400 ppm). Be sure to give them plenty of room, as their long polyps can sting neighbouring corals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a WYSIWYG item, so you'll receive the exact specimen pictured.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eastern Marine Aquariums","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42316467666999,"sku":"EMA-LPS-20260710-V5BU","price":150.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1849\/1739\/files\/5106d371-27ad-4ee8-be62-3410b854fb6b-12-_MG_4402.png?v=1783713017","url":"https:\/\/easternmarineaquariums.co.nz\/products\/mint-green-goniopora-colony","provider":"EasternMarine Aquariums","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
