Agree with Ringo there, after looking at it again with my glasses on

Thank You

I understand that they are difficult to maintain?

I have had mine for over 6 months with no episodes.

They're on the more difficult side to have long term success with. That one looks bleached to me.

I have one too that came on my live rock. It's snowy white as well but seems to keep on keepin on. Doesn't look bleached.

I had T5s until a few days ago. Now have LEDs. Hope that helps.

very low flow, medium light, needs to be target fed every now and then with cyclopeze or something similar.

my first goni looked like that one.

This is a duplicate thread - but yes, this is a very bleached red Goniopora.

I elaborated more in the other thread.
