The Two Little Fishies Goniopower Coral Feed 30g is a specialized powdered zooplankton blend developed for feeding Goniopora and Alveopora corals, as well as other filter-feeding marine invertebrates. The product is rich in vitamins, amino acids, trace elements, and lipids to promote polyp expansion, healthy growth, and vibrant coloration.
Features & Benefits:
-
Targeted nutrition: The formula was created by coral expert Justin Credabel to meet the specific nutritional needs of Goniopora and Alveopora, which have a weaker sting and have a harder time capturing food from the water column than some other corals.
-
Broad appeal: In addition to flowerpot corals, this advanced zooplankton diet is suitable for a wide range of other filter feeders, including soft and stony corals, anemones, zoanthids, clams, and feather duster worms.
-
Dry formula: Goniopower comes as a spray-dried powder, so it does not require refrigeration and has a long shelf life.
-
Target feeding method: For best results, the powder is mixed with saltwater to create a slurry and then directly targeted at the coral polyps using a baster or similar tool. This works best when circulation pumps are temporarily turned off to prevent the food from dispersing too quickly.
How to use:
According to product instructions, you should mix two parts of seawater with one part of Goniopower powder to form a thick paste or slurry.
-
Stop flow: Turn off your tank's circulation pumps to create a low-flow environment.
-
Mix: Combine the powder and tank water in a small cup.
-
Target feed: Use a baster or Julian's Thing to deposit the food mixture directly onto the coral polyps.
-
Wait: Allow the corals to feed for about 20 minutes before turning the pumps back on.
-
Frequency: Feed daily to weekly, depending on your corals' needs and response. A maximum daily usage is suggested at 1/4 tsp per 12 gallons for the whole tank.
