The story of this little guy is that I bought a rock that had 3 mushrooms for about $30, to my surprise about 2 weeks later the torch began to notice and began to grow, This was one of the first photos I took of him when he started to notice

Wow that’s like a joker Goni! I like it!
Where did you get it from?
I managed to find it in my LFS. There’s a bunch of goniopora variations there and I’ve got my eye on yet another… My LFS is dangerous for goni lovers.

Lucky!

I was at my LFS the other day. They had only one Goni. But it was good sized, definitely not a frag. It was a 2.5” rock completely covered in long stem green goni for $90

If I had space I would have bought it.

If it was a more unique or interesting color…I would have bought it and made room lol

Back on topic. Loving coral

COE Ring of Fire Lobo - 2” healed colony / frag. The golden ring is developing and shows the shape it will grow into.

Not the parent colony, but another frag, this one is 3” and an example of what mine hopefully will look like in a few months

Another pink one I love is Cultivated Reef Daisy Dukes:

They have brown skirts, but their pink disks have an interesting metallic sheen.
Playboy bunnies are a beautiful pink as well.

Currently in love with this HG Micromussa. I’ve been looking at them and my LFS was going to up the price from 130 ($165) if I didn’t go for it and I couldn’t resist the size it is! 130 usually goes for a coral with 2-3 heads not a coral with about 8!

Now I’m just waiting on an Amazeballs goni to get fragged…
