Same issue! I had a gonio for 3 days...only extending its head, body not out. Its a long tentacle branching type. Its in a high flow area thou. So low flow is key? everything else in tank is doing fine...

I have one for 3 months currently and after the first 2 months the tentacles do not extend also and due to calcium too low and after i started manual dosing of calcium, my gonio starts extending the tentacles. My water flow is moderately high and I am using Maxspect Razor LED...

There are many types of Gonio. Some are easier than others. Look at the piece when you buy it. If you see a lot of skeleton than the tentacles, don't choose it.
