yup, went there to buy some filters for my freshwater tank and decided to look around and saw this and a huge piece of flourescent green bubble and just couldn't resist it.

I think I read somewhere that when they are bleached like that. it's not good. tey need to be fed daily, like a sun coral. Extremely poor survival rate, in captivity. Big lecture on them by a fellow last IMAC.

Awesome coral

White, bright yellow, and fluorescent green looking Goniopora are considered “bleached” specimens, which means they are lacking zooxanthellae within their tissue. Goniopora in this condition look very unnatural and in many instances, their polyps will remain somewhat retracted until the zooxanthellae densities increase. There have even been some instances of dyed specimens being sold.

Are you supposed to 'feed' all zoos / polyps?

I'm kinda new, and figured they just got what they needed from the water.
