When fully extended, the colony produces a mass of delicate flower-like polyps that sway together in the flow, with the warm centres standing out against the cooler surrounding colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlveopora are closely related in appearance to Goniopora, but there's a neat way to tell them apart: each Alveopora polyp has \u003cstrong\u003e12 tentacles\u003c\/strong\u003e, while Goniopora have 24. It's a small detail that becomes surprisingly obvious once you know to look for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy We Like It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe colour combination on this one is gorgeous. The red centres look like tiny hearts sitting inside the paler green-blue polyps, which is where the Love Hearts name comes from. Add the soft movement of a fully extended Alveopora and you've got a coral that's interesting both from across the tank and close up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlveopora appreciate stable reef conditions, moderate lighting and varied flow that gently moves the extended polyps. They are photosynthetic but can also benefit from fine particulate and plankton-sized foods. Regular access to suitable suspended nutrition can support healthy growth and polyp extension.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Happy Reef","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53627171209552,"sku":"THRC-0056","price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0921\/9552\/0848\/files\/original_a810256c-f6ba-4dba-9490-34caeecf47bb.jpg?v=1789766289","url":"https:\/\/www.thehappyreef.com\/products\/love-hearts-alveopora-113","provider":"The Happy Reef","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
