needs lots of light. please it high.

thanks for ID. I'm wondering how it can survive there at the LFS where the light is quite low. Definitely, it's not high light from what I saw.

Believe it or not, need high light n moderate flow.

Not an easy coral to maintain.

How sure are you that it is surviving in the LFS and not wasting away? LS in LFS change hands fast. that's how they make money, they are not into keeping the LS for long periods of time.

Try reading and research a little on this beautiful but relatively challenging coral. From what i remember, they seems to benefit from iron element. So you might wanna read up on this area to increase your chances of keeping a happy and thriving goniopora.

Enjoy your reefing
