How big do those get

Pavona is encrusting (at least the type I have) and a relatively slow grower. I've not seen a bright yellow variety but have some green that's pretty

I really like the plating look with entrusting corals. I wish I knew which coral would plate for me lol

Yes. I have one in each tank this is the larger of the two. Got her on a trade from a friend.

Mannn that's so pretty. How easy or hard does it grow for you?

How old is your tank? Be sure to take into account the level of stability needed for some of the SPS...

I've got a yellow gonipora, but they are hard to find and some reefers don't have much luck with them -still a beautiful addition.

Also need to keep an eye on alk.

Pavona I would say is medium grower. It's not as fast as montipora, but you can see growth each month. It is faster than favia though.

How long have you had it. I've read alot about gonis in general being hard to keep.

I haven't dabbled in supplementing just yet. I don't dose anything mainly because I don't Wana start adding a bunch of bottles of different stuff if my current corals are doing great. So far I have a Malaysian torch. Multi green hammer. About 20 zoa polyps ..ric mushroom. And a favia. Also dosing is a little intimidating but I will kick off the training wheels when it's time lol

Couple of years now; also have pink, red and a small green one. Do great in my tanks, but I can't get regular mushrooms to grow no matter what I try. My way of saying that each tank is unique in some ways and I wouldn't avoid gonis based just on what you read.
Good luck.
