LCH Plum Crazy Goniopora
Most Gonis seem perfectly happy living somewhere between pink, red, and yellow. LCH Plumb Crazy apparently wanted nothing to do with any of that. Its polyps are a deep, dark plum with a bright green mouth tucked right in the center.
This is a Lazy’s Coral House exclusive, and after years of staring at more Gonis than any reasonable person probably should, I’ve still never seen another one quite like it.

We recommend starting the LCH Plum Crazy Goniopora in the 100 - 200 PAR range.
Flow — Moderate
Moderate
Provide Moderate variable flow that keeps detritus from settling on the Goniopora. Avoid constant direct current from the same direction in favor of random chaotic water movement.
Placement — Lower to Mid level
Placement of your LCH Plum Crazy Goniopora is one of the most important decisions.
This is where you’ll have to take lighting, flow, future growth and nearby corals into consideration.
Since it prefers 100 - 200 PAR range it will need to be mounted Lower to Mid level on your rock work depending on your light intensity.
Allow room for its Solitary growth form, and consider neighboring coral colors and shape. When possible, use contrasting corals such as red next to green, blue next to orange, or yellow next to purple, and mix growth forms such as tall branching corals next to plating or encrusting corals.
