Gonapora Corals

Hi all, I just bought a Gonapora yesterday. I understand they don't last long in a capative enviorment. Can anyone tell what a good food source is for them.
Thanks,
Murph213

I have 2 small Red one and 2 Bigger Lemon/Yellow .I have had the reds for about 10 months and the Yellow about 4 monnths.So far they are doing great.I don't direct feed them but I feed my tanks every other day and heavy .

I love the way they look but I have heard alot of people having trouble with them.

Best of luck.

Also I just do a mixture of food and sqiurt in tank .Cyclo,Mysis,Sqiud,you name it.

I feed mine twice a week directly with a turkey baster.Usually coral frenzy,reef roids and cyclops(freezer bar and freeze dried).I also turn the pumps off for about 20 minutes while I'm doing that,gonis are slow eaters.

BTW,goniopora are LPS corals.
