Help new coral

[ClownFishGuy6]

Can somebody please tell me what kind of coral this is and give me some information on it. And does this coral spread?

Goniopora. Spread - no. It will grow. And will drop buds. But isn't an invasive species.

Ps. Relatively hard to keep. I prefer alveapora for that reason.

Correct ID. And one of the hardest to keep, especially the green ones.

I read that they have to get a lot of high manganese and iron food so Can someone tell me if that's right before I do it?

Perhaps. The key to success is keeping your water parameters stable while feeding regularly - oyster feast, phyto, bbs- variety of foods.
On thing that works will is to pulverize some seafood, then use the juice in a turkey blaster and target feed.

unless you are very diligent, I wouldn't get a Goni
