(Also known as Flowerpot Coral, Daisy Coral, or Long Tentacle Goniopora)

Overview

The Pom Pom Long Tentacle Hard Coral (Goniopora sp.) is a stunning and dynamic large-polyp stony (LPS) coral, celebrated for its long, flowing tentacles and flower-like polyp structure that gives the appearance of a vibrant underwater bouquet. When fully extended, the coral sways gracefully with the current, resembling soft coral movement while retaining the skeletal structure of an LPS. Colours vary from green, red, pink, purple, yellow, and metallic teal, often with contrasting tips. Though historically considered challenging, modern reef systems with stable parameters make Goniopora an achievable and spectacular addition for aquarists seeking motion, colour, and elegance.

Origin

Native to the Indo-Pacific region, including the Great Barrier Reef, Coral Sea, Fiji, Tonga, Indonesia, and the Red Sea. Commonly found in shallow, protected lagoons and reef slopes, where light is moderate and currents are gentle to moderate.

Feeding

The Pom Pom Coral is photosynthetic, housing zooxanthellae that provide much of its energy. However, Gonioporagreatly benefits from direct feeding to support long-term growth and vibrant colour. Feed 2–3 times per week with:

  • Microplankton or marine snow
  • Rotifers, phytoplankton, and coral plankton blends
  • Specialized coral foods (reef roids, powdered LPS blends)

Target feed gently with a pipette in low flow to prevent food from being blown away.

Lighting

Moderate to high lighting. Provide bright, diffused illumination using LED, T5, or hybrid lighting systems.

  • PAR range: 120–250 ¬µmol/m¬≤/s
  • Acclimate slowly to higher light levels to prevent bleaching.
  • Blue-spectrum lighting enhances polyp fluorescence and tip colouration.
Water Flow

Moderate, indirect flow. Gentle, randomised currents are ideal — strong enough to keep the long tentacles swaying but not so intense that they retract or tear. Avoid direct laminar flow from pumps.

Placement
  • Position on mid to lower rockwork or the substrate where light and flow are moderate.
  • Allow 10–15 cm (4–6 inches) of space around the coral for full polyp extension.
  • Avoid placement near sharp rock edges or aggressive neighbours that may irritate or damage tissue.
  • Stable, nutrient-balanced water promotes longevity and growth.
Tank Mates

Reef safe with caution. Compatible with:

  • Peaceful reef fish (gobies, blennies, clownfish, tangs, wrasses, etc.)
  • Invertebrates such as snails, shrimp, and small hermit crabs
  • Other peaceful LPS and soft corals with sufficient space

Avoid:

  • Aggressive or stinging corals (e.g., Euphyllia, Galaxea, Hydnophora) nearby
  • Butterflyfish and angelfish that may nip at extended polyps
Aggression

Peaceful.Goniopora does not possess strong stinging tentacles but can be irritated by contact with aggressive species. Provide adequate space to prevent accidental damage.

Experience Level

Intermediate to advanced. The Pom Pom Coral requires stable parameters, regular feeding, and moderate flow. Once established, it becomes a hardy and rewarding coral, displaying long-lasting polyp extension and vivid colouration.

Water Parameters
  • Temperature: 24–27°C (75–81°F)
  • pH: 8.1–8.4
  • Salinity: 1.024–1.026 SG
  • Alkalinity (dKH): 8–10
  • Calcium: 420–450 ppm
  • Magnesium: 1250–1350 ppm
  • Nitrate: 2–10 ppm (slightly elevated levels promote health)
  • Phosphate: 0.02–0.05 ppm
  • Tank Size: Minimum 100 litres (25 gallons); larger systems preferred for long-term stability

Consistent trace elements such as iron and manganese can support long-term health and polyp density.

Reef Compatibility

Reef safe. The Pom Pom Long Tentacle Coral adds remarkable movement, colour, and natural softness to reef aquariums. When given space and stability, it forms large, gently waving colonies that become living centrepieces in mixed or LPS-dominant systems.




Interesting Fact

Goniopora polyps each contain 24 tentacles, giving the coral its signature daisy-like appearance — a trait that distinguishes it from its close relative Alveopora, which has only 12 tentacles per polyp.

Great quality, easy to set up.
Size: 3 Panels, Color: Grey, Size: 3 Panels, Color: Grey
I actually have this in my bedroom, replaced a non acoustic panel with it. These make a huge difference. As someone who is always playing music on their speakers I don't want to bother my roommates too much. Easily can hear the difference once these were in place. The panel itself is high quality and thick, what's a really nice detail is how they are attached together, there are multiple wedges just like foam noise dampeners which is super cool! This thing is easy to move around and can be folded for storage with ease. You get extra screws just in case you lose any, the feet are made out of metal which adds to the quality. There was a very slight chemical smell when taking it out the box, however that went away in just a few hours. I can imagine using this in a noisy office, surrounding yourself with these in a cube shape will make all the difference to focus on your work. These panels are great and if you're looking for quality, I'd say you can pick these up without worry. No issues on my end!

Office Divider
Size: 5 Panels, Color: Grey
This office divider is well made and easy to assemble. All you have to do is install the feet. The panels are only about an inch thick, but they work surprisingly well at muffling unwanted background noise.

Easily Create a Workspace
Size: 5 Panels, Color: Grey
Such a great design. I am loving the versatility of these - very easy to set up and also to store. THe color is perfect for them to blend into the decor. While they don't cancel out the noise altogether, they reduce it and decrease distractions. No installation needed - has its own supports. Built really well with good materials - sleek and sturdy and solid. They have increased the privacy and have helped make a great space without difficult construction. Work well and they are great value for money - instant privacy and space.
