October update. Pretty sure my tank is playing a cruel trick on me. This is my final living coral of the 3 contest ones and it’s STNing. All the other corals that came with these are exploding in growth and I’ve never seen my tank happier. Oh well .

Maybe I’ll take some pics of the other corals I got in my BC box just to show the difference, I do have OG pics of them from a year ago to compare.

You should definitely do a write-up on your tank and what you do with coral placement, food, flow, and lighting! That growth is nearly symmetrical, very well done.

Yea, I may be a little shorter...but I'm girthy and have a lot of tips. :winking-face-with-tongue:

Good luck all; its been fun!

Been a busy month and neglected tank more than should have. Apologies for super dirty glass… also my pump for carx had an issue a few days ago and my all dropped to 5ish before I noticed… slowly crawling my way out of that…

Is this final month? I’ll clean glass and get some nicer final shots in the next day or two lol

I know I'm not in the top growers so I wasn't worried about missing this last month. I do want to get a picture to share something interesting with you guys on my frag. My new branches and area around them is almost completly lacking any color they are just stark white branches and continues to grow that way. One has just the smallest bit of brown on it. They have a white ring around the base of those branches that's also lacking color. They have been this way since they started growing out of the base.

Its a trip how the growth pattern is so different in our tanks. Some compact, some more stretched out. I wonder if that's current , light intensity, nutrients or ,,, could be any or all I guess.

Was taking some pictures today and wanted to throw one up here. I’m finally starting to get some good growth after fairly sluggish growth for a while. Also getting some bright neon green tips which is cool. As usual, the pictures don’t really do it justice:
