Pretty cool. I am shocked it likes all that flow.

Actually, The flow is really not that strong. It looks like a lot, but it actually is waving around pretty slow. Just kinda looks that way because of the speed of the video.

What's putting those tentacles out to the right of the Goni?

Yeh, that's what I hear. Good luck with it. Sure would be really cool if it works out for you.

I think gonis have become easier to keep now that people understand their needs better. I know of a few local reefers that have them dropping baby gonis off. With high flow and lighting, the type you have should be fine. The can also feed on certain types of food.

I have target fed it with dt's, reef chili, mysis basically because this is all I have. Do you know of any food that may be beneficial? I would love to see some baby gonis dropping off!

Nice video. I bought a similar specimen because an employee at the LFS in tmapa told me they were weasy to care for. It pretty muched started dying the minute it hit the tank and never fully extended. I looked it up on the net and found out they are pretty hard to keep. I will never buy another one and I now try to use more than one source when I can about species before I buy it.

Here's an AA artical that may be helpful. The like smaller foods though, like the oyster eggs, golden pearls, cyclopeeze, etc...

Thanks Ben, Reading the article, I think I have a Goniopora polyformis. I have some oyster eggs in the freezer I forgot about. I will try to feed it some. Thanks again!
