Unfortunately I think you are misunderstanding.
The information was stating how big water changes can hurt SPS, and how 10gals weren't big enough to damage like that.

Goniopora is notoriously hard to keep. I almost got a nice sized colony a while back for a good price, but decided not too.
They are also known as a flowerpot coral. I'd look into their care very carefully to make sure you can keep it.

They are very sensitive to lights and has to have very good conditions to fully come out

Nice.
I got a bunch this week for my tank some Zoas and different colored Candy canes/Trumpets, one red and 2 blue and several colors of mushrooms.
I had to pass on some more complicated ones, ones I don't have to feed meaty treats... I passed up the MOST gorgeous Acan -Kinda wish I had got it to try.
Always more opportunities in the future

Autumn you should have jumped on the acan! They aren't hard to keep, and don't require foods.

LPS can eat and like too, but they don't need it.

Autumn-acans are about as easy and low light as lps come  .
10 gallon- good luck with the goni, red is supposed to a bit easier than green but no first hand experience.

Ok. It's open after being in tank for like an hour. What do I feed it? How often?
