I love it except I have to scrape it off the wiers every 2 weeks. Started with a little 2" piece. Like @Sam7 said start it low because it grows toward the light.

I like it....it works good in my tank. Plant it not lower then you want it and it will only grow upwards
Until some is picked off or falls off and lands somewhere else. If you are not in love with GSP and comfortable with it spreading everywhere without being diligent about control, avoid it.

I’ve started a back glass GSP, some fell on rock but it’s doing pretty well , be prepared to have snails knock it off until it attaches

I love it. Had it on several tanks.
On a 180 I had it grew from side to side and when it reached the surface it started growing in layers so it was 3" thick and created branches that hung down.
I had pictures but those ones have disappeared from my imageshack account

I have it on the back glass of my tank. It looks good, but there is a problem. When you trim it back some pieces are going to get away and it will spread. I've got it on 4 rocks now and am going to have to remove them from the tank, hit the gsp with hydrogen peroxide to kill it, and then put it back. Quite the pain in the tuckus.

I will never add GSP again. Somehow it popped up on a rock in my new sps tank, NO CLUE where it came from
