(Also known as Flowerpot Coral, Daisy Coral, or Long Tentacle Goniopora)

Overview

The Pom Pom Long Tentacle Hard Coral (Goniopora sp.) is a stunning and dynamic large-polyp stony (LPS) coral, celebrated for its long, flowing tentacles and flower-like polyp structure that gives the appearance of a vibrant underwater bouquet. When fully extended, the coral sways gracefully with the current, resembling soft coral movement while retaining the skeletal structure of an LPS. Colours vary from green, red, pink, purple, yellow, and metallic teal, often with contrasting tips. Though historically considered challenging, modern reef systems with stable parameters make Goniopora an achievable and spectacular addition for aquarists seeking motion, colour, and elegance.

Origin

Native to the Indo-Pacific region, including the Great Barrier Reef, Coral Sea, Fiji, Tonga, Indonesia, and the Red Sea. Commonly found in shallow, protected lagoons and reef slopes, where light is moderate and currents are gentle to moderate.

Feeding

The Pom Pom Coral is photosynthetic, housing zooxanthellae that provide much of its energy. However, Gonioporagreatly benefits from direct feeding to support long-term growth and vibrant colour. Feed 2–3 times per week with:

  • Microplankton or marine snow
  • Rotifers, phytoplankton, and coral plankton blends
  • Specialized coral foods (reef roids, powdered LPS blends)

Target feed gently with a pipette in low flow to prevent food from being blown away.

Lighting

Moderate to high lighting. Provide bright, diffused illumination using LED, T5, or hybrid lighting systems.

  • PAR range: 120–250 ¬µmol/m¬≤/s
  • Acclimate slowly to higher light levels to prevent bleaching.
  • Blue-spectrum lighting enhances polyp fluorescence and tip colouration.
Water Flow

Moderate, indirect flow. Gentle, randomised currents are ideal — strong enough to keep the long tentacles swaying but not so intense that they retract or tear. Avoid direct laminar flow from pumps.

Placement
  • Position on mid to lower rockwork or the substrate where light and flow are moderate.
  • Allow 10–15 cm (4–6 inches) of space around the coral for full polyp extension.
  • Avoid placement near sharp rock edges or aggressive neighbours that may irritate or damage tissue.
  • Stable, nutrient-balanced water promotes longevity and growth.
Tank Mates

Reef safe with caution. Compatible with:

  • Peaceful reef fish (gobies, blennies, clownfish, tangs, wrasses, etc.)
  • Invertebrates such as snails, shrimp, and small hermit crabs
  • Other peaceful LPS and soft corals with sufficient space

Avoid:

  • Aggressive or stinging corals (e.g., Euphyllia, Galaxea, Hydnophora) nearby
  • Butterflyfish and angelfish that may nip at extended polyps
Aggression

Peaceful.Goniopora does not possess strong stinging tentacles but can be irritated by contact with aggressive species. Provide adequate space to prevent accidental damage.

Experience Level

Intermediate to advanced. The Pom Pom Coral requires stable parameters, regular feeding, and moderate flow. Once established, it becomes a hardy and rewarding coral, displaying long-lasting polyp extension and vivid colouration.

Water Parameters
  • Temperature: 24–27°C (75–81°F)
  • pH: 8.1–8.4
  • Salinity: 1.024–1.026 SG
  • Alkalinity (dKH): 8–10
  • Calcium: 420–450 ppm
  • Magnesium: 1250–1350 ppm
  • Nitrate: 2–10 ppm (slightly elevated levels promote health)
  • Phosphate: 0.02–0.05 ppm
  • Tank Size: Minimum 100 litres (25 gallons); larger systems preferred for long-term stability

Consistent trace elements such as iron and manganese can support long-term health and polyp density.

Reef Compatibility

Reef safe. The Pom Pom Long Tentacle Coral adds remarkable movement, colour, and natural softness to reef aquariums. When given space and stability, it forms large, gently waving colonies that become living centrepieces in mixed or LPS-dominant systems.




Interesting Fact

Goniopora polyps each contain 24 tentacles, giving the coral its signature daisy-like appearance — a trait that distinguishes it from its close relative Alveopora, which has only 12 tentacles per polyp.

Good fit, good value
Style: CF12436 Classic, Style: CF12436 Classic
Purchased this filter for my 2023 Outback. First off changing the cabin filter on this model Subaru is amazingly easy and can be done with no tools and no more then 5 minutes. Pictures posted show packaging, the paper "Blue" filter side, the "Black" charcoal side and the foam outer edge. The filter is well made and is very sturdy as the outer shell is plastic vs. other paper filters that are more flexible. Holding the filter in your hand and giving it a slite shake you can hear the activated charcoal within it. After installing the filter I had a few trips in the car, did I notice any difference in the air quality coming into the cabin....... no. But does this mean its not working? also no. What I can say is the filter fit snug and left no gaps, and with the plastic surroundings and foam in sure the filter will not be letting anything get by as it passes through the system. All and all this filter is well made and sturdy, and seems to be a good value with other paper only filters being about the same price.

Perfect Fit and Great Quality

The thickness is just right and fits perfectly. Easy to install, good airflow, and the air feels much cleaner after replacing the old filter. Great value for the price.

Easy to install
Style: CF10374 Classic
The frame is made of hard plastic (color black) which fits perfectly in the air cabin filter system of a Toyota Tacoma 2006 V6. It holds it's shap quite well. The carbon filter is able to be seen and works so far. The quality seems good and the thickness of the filter is well made with a foam outter film that makes it fit my Tacoma very well. I'm happy with it. The ease of installation is good and it is well worth the money.

Filter quality and value
Style: CF11809 Classic
2nd time to purchase this item over a 5 year period. The filter has a rigid frame making last much longer than other paper filters. Perfect fit and worth the cost. Great job filtering cabin and neutralizing odors!

Simple Upgrade That Makes a Real Difference
Style: CF10140 Classic
Installed the Zezut cabin filter in my 2005 Infiniti G35 and noticed the difference immediately. The air inside the car felt fresher and cleaner right away — no more stale air circulating through the vents. The HEPA backing is a big deal, knowing it's actually filtering out dust, pollen, and particles rather than just being a basic filter gives you real peace of mind. The quality feels solid and well made. Installation was super easy, took just a few minutes with no tools needed. For the price this is one of those simple maintenance upgrades that's absolutely worth doing. Your lungs will thank you. Great price and affordable, top choice for replacement in my opinion.
