I'd recommend checking with your LFS, they can usually special order from ReefGen for you. If you're in the Corpus Christi area, I've got a few pieces I'd be happy to sell.

Does anyone have the pink Goni from ReefGen in their tank, and if so, how's it doing?

The pink Goni from Reefgen is absolutely stunning - truly one of a kind. Unique is another place that carries Justin's corals, which is awesome. He just announced a group buy for our club and it's great that he's a CT native who regularly visits our stores. Reefgen's corals are top-notch, all aquacultured, and I'm a huge fan of their work.

I've had a great experience with Bluezooaquatics, but I'd recommend checking with your LFS first - it's a big time-saver and supports the local economy.

I've ordered from Unique Corals, not entirely sure if it's a Reefgen Goni, but it's a yellow flame - we'll see how it goes.

Honestly, I'm a bit confused why some folks think it's a goner. My Goni's been doing its thing since day two - you know, the whole tentacle-spreading routine. I mean, every coral I've had does this; they hide their polyps for a day, then voilà, they're out and about. The toadstool leather was the only one that didn't play hard to get, but that's a whole different story. Anyway, the Goni's doing great, if I do say so myself. It's a bit of a night owl, so it mostly sticks its polyps out when the lights are low or at night.

I'm genuinely curious, what's the longest people have been able to keep their Goniopora alive? Are there any success stories out there, like 5 years or more? Even 2 years would be impressive to me.

My green goniopora is going strong at 6 months now. Initially, it took a bit to settle in, and I noticed it wasn't extending its polyps as much as I'd like. That's when I started spot feeding it with coral frenzy. Fast forward to now, and it's fully extended 24/7 - a beautiful sight to see.
