Well, it's been receeding for the past two days (and at that size any more days and it'll be gone!). I've detached the disc and placed it on the floor of my tank. I am SOOO over this stupid ^%^&$$%$%$% coral. :ah:

Every other chalice in my tank looks amazing...

Out of spite, I think I'll glue it next to the ******* and just let them smother it!

You might stimulate the growth of the flamethrower by doing it. :wink:

To be honest, mine grows well under 250W Radiums at the bottom or top of the tank. I think your growth will be faster once it grows out more.

It's down to a smudge. All my other chalices look great. Lame.

ive got my FT up High... It does better with more light.... Should my pink ******* be up there too? It seems like you guys think Pink ******* likes just as much light as FT.

I think so. I went to Vivid during the past thanksgiving. They are keeping it in the middle under 400w metal halides. Colors are super bright.

I have both the FT and PB on a frag rack about 10 inches from the light. They do well :D

My original monster mash did the same :( Sorry to hear Peter.

I've had some do the same. My Girl-X has been done NOTHING for the last year!

My MM has finally started to grow pretty decent though.
