It will grow and spread. Why I said test your parameters cuz Coraline need stable KH and a good amount of Calcium to calcify/ grow and spread rapidly!!

Add coralife purple up ( half a dose from what is recommended on the bolle instructions every 3 days for 2 weeks and I will grantee you will see it spreading like wild fire!!! Tested and proven!!

It seems to be spreading quickly I added that piece 3 months ago if that and no I don’t dose I just add nuti billet premixed water into my sump like over the course of one month I’ll only empty one of their boxes which I think is like a few gallons but I only add it alittle at a time

Step one: keep your parameters in check ( via water changes if you don't run an SPS tank or via dosing if you do have sps corals)
Step 2 : introduce Coraline algae ( snail shells/ Frag plugs/ small rocks that has it or Coraline in the bottle ( purple helix/ pink fusion)

Step 3 : keep an eye on your parameters and dose half dosage of purple up every 3 days for 2 weeks.

It will grow and you will try to find ways to get rid of some of it eventually when it starts getting on your front and side glass!!
