Based on the lower light and low flow requirements, Grandmaster Goniopora are typically placed on the sand bed or lower in the tank.

What are Grandmaster Goniopora feeding requirements?

Grandmaster Goniopora will eat smaller foods on occasion, especially foods like Goni power, Reef Roids, and Amino Acids. I wouldn't recommend daily feeding, but once or twice a week will improve their success.

What are the Grandmaster Goniopora dosing requirements?

Grandmaster Goniopora have calcium skeletons, so they do rely on a stable alkalinity and calcium level. Alkalinity levels between 8dKh and 10dKh should all be okay, as long as the calcium level doesn't change more than 0.5dKh in a single day. Standard calcium levels between 350 and 450 ppm is sufficient.

What are the temperature requirements for Grandmaster Goniopora?

Gonis prefer average reef tank temperatures between 76 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit, with 78 degrees being the average.
