Hey there all just thought I’d share a few pics of my Bubblegum Digi and Milka Stylophora.

My first SPS is a Forest Fire Digitata so it's special to me as well. I don't see the green in it anymore though.

Well in the bubblegum in particular those are growth nodes. Yours look plenty healthy tho, so I wouldn’t be too concerned.
 
Next time I take pics it’ll be from a new IM Nuvo 20 long AIO as my Cube cracked in back after a small earthquake we had in eastern Mass this morning
 
Love the bubblegum!

I think Anacropora is “supposed” to be easy, and a fast grower. I just picked up two frags, RRC Goldenrod and JF TNT

We’ll see!

The frag of anacropora I recently added grows daily. I can literally see new growth everyday. It's an insanely fast grower BUT it doesn't encrust.
 
Green goblin grows like a weed. 1.5 “ frag into cantaloupe sized in like a year. Had to chop it down.

That’s super interesting I wouldn’t have guessed that. So a big colony grows off a tiny stalk? I don’t see long term success this way
