No offense meant by this, but why would you have Gonioporas in a bare bottom system? They are from sandy murky high detritus areas from what I have heard.

"Flower pot" another name for goniopora and alveoporas.
They also benefit from random wave action and lower lighting spectrums 14K-20K blue light. Natural environment is a sandy bottom in turbulent murky lagoon areas. Although they "can" be adjusted to specific tank conditions but are one of the hardest corals to keep alive. Most die after about 6-10 months. A good indicator to corals health is extension, the anthocodia (is that the right word Matt?) which should be about 6-7 inches long in a 3-4 inch goni.

LOL well theres some more useless information for you guys, enjoy it 
Why not try Nassarius snails that's what I use. They burrow and eat detritus.

I have heard some having luck with cerith but there are so many types and they need no substrate. How about a conch? I used to have fighting conchs and they are fine in a BB system I think. Also, never tried but what about a cowrie?
