Is this goniopora

[MrDLHughesY]

Hi guys can you please clarify if this is pink goniopora ? Had it approx 6 months now. I thought it was goniopora but looking at others pictures on here it doesn’t seem to stretch anything near what others do. And also others seem to be glued on frag plugs like a zoa would where mine seems to be on some sort of a skeleton.

Cheers

It looks like one, maybe light conditions not the best and losing colour

 

[MrDLHughesY]

Ok thanks. Tbh it was never a deep colour pink and it’s probably more extended now than ever has been

Yep, mine like medium light and low to moderate flow.

Yeah- Alveopora has 12 'pedals' on a polyp, Gonipora has 24

That is a goniopora.
There all kinds of Gonis. Some have long polyps while others are short. For example G. stutchburyi has short polyps and very small polyps almost looks like porites.

Light and flow can also affect how much they stretch or not.
