I've seen the colors vary a lot in gonioporas. So it could be the same
thing.
I've also heard that the key to keeping these guys is a "dirty" tank. Dirty
as in higher nutrients.
I've even seen pictures where this guy had lots of budding from his
flower pots. With little baby flower pots all around the parent.
I guess success is very rare but not unheard of.

Does anyone have any knowledge of a flowerpot coral that's pinkish-orange
in
color? It was given to me a little over a year ago, and it has grown
considerably. Am I "one of the lucky ones", or is this particular coral
different from the other flowerpots that are usually sure to die in
captivity?
