{"product_id":"toxic-pink-flowerpot-coral","title":"Toxic Pink Flowerpot Coral","description":"\u003cp\u003eFlowerpot corals, also known by their scientific name Goniopora, are captivating LPS corals that bring a unique presence to a reef aquarium. The Toxic Pink Flowerpot Coral is especially valued for its distinctive pink hue and the elegant way its polyps extend, creating a soft, flowing garden look. This specimen is a frag, making it an ideal candidate for placement in a variety of tank sizes. Despite their beauty, Goniopora have a reputation for being demanding, but with proper care, they can thrive and become a long-term feature in your reef. This particular pink variety offers a vibrant pop of colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis specific Toxic Pink Flowerpot Coral displays polyps that are a striking pink colour. When fully extended, these polyps create a mesmerising, feathery appearance, gently swaying with the water flow. Each polyp head houses a ring of tentacles, typically 24, which are responsible for capturing food. The pink colouration remains consistent throughout the coral, making it a focal point in the aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo ensure success with your pink Goniopora, moderate lighting (100-200 PAR) is recommended. Place it on the sand bed or in a lower to mid-level position where it receives indirect, moderate water flow. While zooxanthellate, Goniopora benefit significantly from regular target feeding of fine particulate foods such as phytoplankton and zooplankton. Maintain stable water parameters: Calcium at 400-440 ppm, Alkalinity at 8-10 dKH, and Magnesium at 1300-1350 ppm. Acclimate your coral slowly using a drip method. Be mindful of its sweeper tentacles, which can extend at night; ensure adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is not a WYSIWYG listing; you'll receive a specimen of the same species with similar size and colouration to the one pictured, hand-picked for health and colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note that colours can look slightly different in person than in photos, depending on your lighting and screen, and the size given is an approximate guide measured at the time of listing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eastern Marine Aquariums","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50224960372791,"sku":"EMA-LPS-20260924-0RHG","price":165.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1849\/1739\/files\/51ae1fb5-d566-4a1a-ad73-ac02091dda1b-_MG_5034.png?v=1790283505","url":"https:\/\/easternmarineaquariums.co.nz\/products\/toxic-pink-flowerpot-coral","provider":"EasternMarine Aquariums","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
