Looks like you "snared" some swag!:D
I won that the other day. Not showed up the same day as my rockscape. I have to get a picture of the rock before I put it in. It's kinda cool. A single center piece with some ledges/shelves predrilled for frag plugs

But these lights are good! Sadly I don't have anything high grade to compare too. Like radions or ai , what's another one?
They are great. I'm running the older model on my tank right now and purchased a 75 to add to it.

I had to frag my green slimer yesterday. It's STN from the base up right now for some reason. Everything else seems to be exploding with growth.

Sps sure can throw a fit. I hope to not battle another case like that for a few more years. It sucks having to toss out half of a coral or more.

Mine was only about 3" tall. I fragged the top 2". The last one I battled with, the mother "colony" survived but hasn't grown at all I since. The three frags I took off are each bigger than the colony and are full polyp extension. It's the spongodes in front of my bubble gum digitata.

I think part of what happened may have been aiptasia. There were two small aiptasia on the frag plug and when I finally found some peppermint shrimp to remedy the situation the base had started dying and slowly moving up the frag.

Keep an eye on that shrimp, they can be worse than the peppermints = aiptasia... my mind is a scrambled egg.
I need to figure out how to get rid of micro feather dusters now... My fuzzy shroom came with 2 and now it has about 300 on the frag plug.

might have to scrape them off, 6 line wrasse. cbb will devour them.
I have a six-line. Don't know if I want to go with a Butterfly... I was considering scraping but they're only bunched on the frag plug.

They don't really do anything other than look unsightly if you don't like them. I never minded them really. I used to have them caked all on the back of my glass, around my torch coral and other shaded areas. CBB came in reduced the population to the sump.
