My growing Goni garden

[PeterEde]

Got my glitter yesterday.
Looks to have multiple colour polyps?
Was well extended at LFS

Looks nice. I struggle with gonis

Gonis are cool. I have 3 now wish I had room for more. My torches sure hate them though.

My first was off a reef on LR
It never opened and died.
I think the aqua cultured are far more tolerant

I do not know if mine were aqua cultured or not. I have one that is thriving one that is surviving and four that have melted away.

Don't worry you're not the only one that has bad luck with Gonis too.

Am wondering if my new goni is a Rainbow?
Appears to have a few colours mixed in

Find that gonis need to be fed. And not reef roids. Essentially things you would feed a plant, iron and manganese. Also ensure you’ve got no3 and po4 in the water as well. Moderate to low lighting and moderate flow and you are good to go. I’ve got over 35 at this point. Maybe more. Lost count.

I think that I am upto 28 gonis. A big game changer for me was dosing trace elements. I use the tropic maybe stuff mixed into my 2 part at the moment and it has made a noted improvement. Some of mine do get pretty high PAR though, most people talk about low PAR, but I have some at 350+ loving life.

I have an abundance on No3 and PO4, mag is in the range 1400

How do you know if you have a glitter?
The new ones tips glow under UV

Good on the NO3 and PO4. It’s manganese, not magnesium.
