Lee valley sells earth magnets which are strong enough to hold a panel.

Rona also does custom cabinet doors for a reasonable price if you're not into making them yourself.

adding my first goniopora after lots of reading and watching youtube vids for the most part these awesome looking corals prefer the same conditions as sps so found a great looking frag to give a try. Anybody interested in learning about flowerpot coral or (goniopora) I would recommend looking up Justin credabel he has a book on them also is the creator of (gonipower) as far as I know the only food made specifically for this species.

Nice piece! I currently have one and will be ordering another as I love how big they get and flow in the water.

I put mine as high as I could in my tank. High light doesn't seem to bother them. Super fast growing and will sting your sps. Send out super long sweeper at night time. So watch out.
