Forgive me for i have sinned

[Mouse]

Ok, went to the LFS yesterday because i was told they had a new shipment in from solomans. there was about 6 Goinoporas sitting in the tank when i got there. I had two of them, Goinopora minors i think, a bright yellow one and a blue one.

I know its bad, but hey someone else would have had them if i didn't and there was soooo many. And hey bright yellow and a blue one, hens teeth mate!!

Just wondered if the Minors were any different in there care to the regular ones. Also the blue one was called a "Crystal Coral" in one of the books lying around, anyone else got any expirience with these.

I would also like to add that the ones i took were allso the most damaged out of the bunch. I know that may seem silly to all the newbies out there. But i just didn't know what to do. Oh well, i guess ill burn in hell.

Crystal coral usually means Galaxia...very different from Goniopora

Naw, you won't burn in hell. You just blew your money, and convinced the LFS to continue ordering those well-selling flowerpots ("hey, everybody loves 'em").

Sorry I can't help you with the husbandry - I've never heard of the "minor" designation. All gonios I've seen have the same coloration, which could be described as a mix of blue, green, and a golden yellow/brown. If your gonios are too yellow, or too blue, I'd suspect dyeing.

FWIW,
Kevin
