Ive grown this goni from the skeleton size of about 1/2 a golfball to about a baseball sized skeleton. Fully inflated its about the size of a volleyball. Awesome coral!

Where do u guys keep ur flower pot? My is almost all dead
here my little flower garden... unfortunately, the largest purple goni is starting to recede from the base. I think he may not be getting enough food an may have to try target feeding outside the tank...
nice setup!

god damn look at mine, Its almost dead now, I bought it and put it on the high rock and was damaged from acan 2 times, so very hurt. I moved it to the bottom of the tank as other people suggested. My question is my flower pot still coming back or not? And should I keep flower pot low or high?
and now
and now
really nice stuff.
michaelis - that seems like a small frag of stutchburyi (from the photos anyways). Just make sure it gets decent lighting and good flow. Don't know what your lighting situation is so can't comment on where to place it. the brownish coloration between the polyps - is that rock/algae? A healthy specimen will have reddish corallite between the polyps.
johnike - how did you get the embedded video? crazy polyp extension btw!

@wretched - wow that looks like a dual color goni - look great!
@volcano - how are you maintaining your goni's - if anything.
Just wondering what people feed their goni's and whether they get a feeding response. I squirt reefroids, cyclopeez, oyster feast, roti feast at it but I don't seem to get much of feeding response. Although I have to say i'm not sure what a feeding response look like for goni's. On the other hand both my corals (red and blue) seem to be thriving.

Here's mine, 20 months strong. Rescued it from a gorilla crab and it has not stopped growing. Wonderful coral. I feed it the liquid part of food like a zoa and I place it like a Duncan coral. It seems to like the suction flow of
