I was thinking today, it would be pretty neat if @Battlecorals grew along with us.. maybe someone can or has surpassed the master lol! I think it would be a nice goalpost to shoot for. Even if its just a quarterly update.
Oh, you guys always do better than me. I’m continually impressed at the growth you guys get on these things!

but I’d be happy to set up a little frag stand, take my fancy pants new ruler and and play along if you guys let me.

I think this is a great idea personally! See how our growth compares to the original grower of the coral.

Any time during the month that you choose.

Of course, later is better because you can show more growth.

My biggest fear is I’m getting great encrusting from a couple weeks ago and it’s looking fantastic… but I’m getting ready by this weekend to move it all into a new upgrade. My test corals are ok but they are not sps.

You too? Just had Ostreopsis crop up in my main display. Let phosphates go south for too long.
